Arthur Logic - Arthur Logic - At Sea - Poems from home

In celebration of Sinterklaas, Julian's girlfriend, Amy, has written a poem about Arthur:

From gran canaria noble Arthur set sail 

Hoping for a blowing gale 

With Grum proudly at the helm of the ship

Enthusiastic steering soon caused a small blip 

The Dutchman meanwhile had caught a fish 

And served it up as a tasty dish 

They then found themselves in a dreaded wind hole

The answer? Skinny dipping - an Atlantic goal

And Nico scaling the mast to gaze Yonder 

With the stars on nightwatch giving the crew something to  ponder 

Sint hopes for Tanya's sake 

That the crew have given their nudity a break

Now finally the trade wind blows

Marking a turn in their fortunes and the end to Arthur's woes 

With not a scratch meal from Phil in sight [Editors note - Phil runs a company called 'Meals from Scratch']

Jerk chicken in a can became the crew's plight 

Back on course thanks to the first mate 

Who is making sure Arthur is not late 

Along with Pickering's skippering 

And kit doing his bit 

Arthur charges forward to the finish line

The ship's arrival will be sublime.

The team on board a happy bunch,

Eagerly awaiting their first rum punch.

In Rodney Bay, proud racer chasers wait,

With beer, steak and bunting for arrival date.

This epic journey has been no mean feat,


Vrolijke sinterklaas from Sint and Piet!
