The Ship

…Once comes the time when you make your choice: keep on sailing or go ashore.

You don’t have a social life as long as you stay on board the ships.
Once you are married and have your children, the choice becomes increasingly difficult.

Economic considerations also play a role.
The chimney must also continue to smoke at home.
You make your choice and call home: nail an anchor at the door, I stop sailing.
My wife has always supported and accepted me in my choice to sail, but was glad that I came home.

Hello daddy.

Woman and children pulled harder than the tugboat I was sailing on.
By the way: a woman’s hair pulls more than a towing wire.

Although we also used other expressions on board!
