Tiberius Smith opened one eye. “Naaae,” he thought “must be a dream”, and promptly shut it again. God, his head hurt. Must have been a grand party because he could remember the start of it , the middle bit ( Lady Gina was a great way to pass 30 minutes, would have been longer but she thought her husband might come looking upstairs for her), but he could not recall the end bit?.

He cracked open the other eye as the first one needed a rest from its hard labour… “Nope, no change in the scenery since last time” the second eye told the brain”. The eye having done its job, closed.

The brain went into overdrive. It remembered the middle again, which resulted in a smile to the mouth, and then with a flash of light, the brain remembered the ending, which triggered off the rest of the inert body to respond to memories.
Memories of a bloody good hiding.

The six servants who helped him leave the party after showing what they thought of a “Cad of a bastard swine”, unquote from Sir John Morse, husband of Lady Gina did not miss a single part of his body with their fists, feet and going by the agony in his side, one or two knuckle dusters. And just when things could not get any worse, it did. Dam the press gang.

“Well Tiger me ol mate”, said the brain to the troops below, “was she worth it?
Only one small part replied “yes”, the rest joined in a resounding “NO” and set off the mouth so that it let out a load groan of pain.

“What a muddle, what a mess, what a great way to get out of marring my ugly rich fiancé” was the next thought to parade across his mind?
Closely followed by the next brain wave “ At least those 3 years on Uncles whaling ships should prove beneficial I suppose”.

Tib “Tiger” Smith at last found that he could move so pulled himself up on the hold walls.

“Now, let’s get in gear and find out who’s who on this bloody ship. I need to find a safe job that will pay well” he muttered to himself as he went to look around.
The first thing he saw was a beef barrel marked HMS HALCYON.


Tiberius Smith


(AOC) Well I must admit, the thought of dieing in my first game week did not cross my mind. I have set up a new profile for myself using my real name in Yahoo and on this forum, as it might happen again.
Just awaiting a mail from yahoo saying that I can post in yahoo.
So anyone want to talk to Tiberius ??
