Rochey's Rant.
ROCHEY’S RANT
The monthly moan from the society’s self-appointed voice of reason
Right then — and so we reach the final rant of
the season. What a way to sign off…
We arranged the end-of-season drinks, and — you guessed it
— another poor turnout. Some things never change!
And then there were the excuses… One member claimed to be
doing "Sober October" — yet was looking distinctly worse for wear by 7pm.
Meanwhile, the most popular phrase of the night became: "I'm just popping outside for a quick fag…" — followed by a disappearing act that Houdini would have been proud of. And the best bit? Most of these people don't even smoke!
All jokes aside — the society has crawled over the
finishing line this Saturday. It's been a long, hard season for us all. Now it's time to rest up, recharge the batteries, and hit the reset button.
But watch this space… BIG changes are coming in 2027. You
have been warned!
CAPTAIN'S DAY… THAT NEVER
HAPPENED!
Well here we are — another year gone, and yep… still no
Captain's Day!
It’s becoming our very own tradition — the event that’s definitely happening… eventually!
It’s becoming our very own tradition — the event that’s definitely happening… eventually!
But it got me thinking — what actually makes a good Captain
anyway?
️ A GOOD CAPTAIN:
Keeps a steady hand on the tiller, calms the waters when
things get choppy, steers a true course, and ensures the crew all arrive safe, happy, and with plenty of beer still in the barrel. In short — they steady the ship.
A NOT-SO-GOOD CAPTAIN:
Is the one who forgets to check the tide, steers straight
for the rocks, blames the compass, and somehow looks surprised when the boat’s taking on water. Let’s just say — they’re the reason life jackets were invented.
Think
legendary figures — Captain Edward Smith of the Titanic… okay, maybe not the best example. Or the absolute master — Captain Jack Sparrow — chaotic, often lost, but somehow always afloat and rum still
intact!
But when it comes to our captain? Well… we have the one,
the only — Grandad Trotter!
Much like the legendary head of the Trotter clan, our
skipper means well, has the best of intentions.
He’s the man with the map upside down, the compass spinning, and a schedule that’s always "next week, my boy, next week!"
But fear not — next year will be different. We’re drawing a
line in the sand. Captain’s Day 2027 is fu*kin happening — and it’s going to be the biggest, best, most legendary day in our society’s history. Mark your diaries, set your alarms, and don’t let our
captain near the calendar!
Watch this space — it’s actually going to happen!
