ThE cruise lINer approached the harbour. Up on the bridge the second officer was looking worried and so were others with him. "Sir, do you want me to cut the main screws back to idle now" he said to the captain, who was distracted by the beautiful slim lady standing very close to him. "Oh no, not yet" the captain replied, who was trying to impress his companion. After what seemed like an age the captain nonchalantly called out "Full reverse". But it was too late and the huge ship struck the moored vessel a glancing blow. Fortunately neither ship was badly damaged (though a few cocktails got spilt) , but the repairs were going to be very expensive. The ship's owners quickly fired the inept captain.
