20th August On a wing and a prayer

 


Not content with crashing the economy and storming off stage during a Q&A on her book tour, former month long Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Liz Truss has now taken to assaulting the clergy.

In what may or may not be a virtually fact free story Grace Under Pressure can reveal that during a quite Sunday service in her former consituency, Liz Truss had a complete mental breakdown just moments into Sunday worship. 

No sooner had the congregation of 14 gathered at St Bidulph church finished a barely audible rendition of Shine Jesus Shine, complete with the most unsynchronised clapping ever heard, than Ms Truss lost the plot. 

Jumping up from her seat she ran screaming down the aisle, rugby tackled the presiding priest, the right honerable Rev Ima Sinna and began beating the Be Jesus out of him, shouting, 'What did you say you bastard!!'

Onlookers, unable to beleive what they were experiencing, just like during Ms Truss' premiership, failed to see what had caused this mental implosion and subsequent aggresion. As one worshipper explained, "All the priest said was Lettuce pray."

6th May Olbia

  A chance to stretch our legs today with our first port of call; Olbia, Sardinia. And it was a quick stretch too due to it being only a five hour stay. Up bright and early, so early in fact that the hot food at the buffet wasn't even ready to be served. Still it gave us a chance to watch the ship glide into port past a host of oyster/mussel beds, before performing a 180 degree turn to reverse into it's berth. A couple of short bus rides later and we were in downtown Olbia. But there an hour or so before anything appeared to open, the disadvantage of being early birds and something we don't seem to learn! Not that Olbia had a great deal to see or maybe if we had done the slightest bit of planning beforehand there might have benn but we didn't. It was pleasant enough but that's about it. It was pleasant enough but nothing special, indeed we were back on the ship after just a couple of hours ashore and then managed to sleep away most of th...

7th May Naples

Image
 I'm sure I've heard the phrase 'see Naples and die' suggesting that it is perhaps not the nicest location in the Mediterranean but if it's good enough for Diego Maradona fir a few years then it's good enough for me for 10 hours. Although the millions of tax free pounds he was paid might have eased his stay. By the time we got up, washed, dressed and up to The Kitchens, the rest of the ship were already there. Compared to the Marie Celeste of yesterday it was absolutely packed, presumably with people having breakfast before heading out on 8am excursions, our excursion was simply going to be the city of Naples itself as possible trips to Vesuvius, Pompei or the Amalfi coast would have been too much / tired.  So on a day when the weather initially seemed uncertain, we jumped aboard route A for the Hop on Hop off bus and headed out into the mayhem that is the Napoli traffic where it was every van, car and scooter for the selves. I think it's bes...
