USS Gibraltar: Chroniton Time Thingamajig

The Gibraltar crew known for their insane habit of getting stuck in tight spots have got themselves stuck in a chroniton time bubble thingamajig and when time runs that slow all sorts of strange goings on start happening when the crew are stuck together for that long.

 I know what your asking yourselves, did they start arguing with each other, fighting each other, resigning themselves to playing chess 24/7. For the full story of what happens when your captain drives his ship smack bang into a chroniton bubble without a seat belt read the full story HERE.

Congratulations to Sophie and Rich

The crew of the USS Gibraltar and Social Events would like to wish a very, very warm congratulations to Sophie and Rich, who today were married by Commodore RoBobby McMillan during the USS Gibrolter RP.

Following the RP, Social events quickly jumped to attention at the unexpected wedding, and organized a celebration at the wondrous event! 

Prosperous future to Sophie and Rich! And may your children be born with all their pixels in place!

Monkeyman and Isobel's Wedding

Weeks of planning, more bridesmaids costume and hair changes than I care to remember and the day had arrived. The wedding of monkeyman and Isobel was upon us.

Last week Saturday a crowd of friends and members made their way to the sumptuous church which had been erected in the plaza at Constellation.

The guests sat quietly as the wedding party made their way down the aisle, bridesmaids, bestman groomsmen all walking two by two taking their prearranged places at the foot of the alter.

There was much discussion the Skype channel which was running along the precedings.

Finally it was my turn to walk down the alsle with Isobel as I had the honour of giving the bride away.
Fortunately for us  the walking animations worked perfectly for us and she made her way up the steps to hold hands with monkeyman and the vows could begin.

Thomas Aker  recited the specially written service, the bride and groom delivered their vows and in the blink of an eye their union had been joined in the eyes of their friends.

As the guests cheered the bridal party made their way out of the church and to the short walk across sims to Galaxy to attend the lavish reception being held at the Roddenberry Centre.

The were many chinked glasses and wine drinking animations before the speeches where delivered as Sodak, Debbydo and myself said a few words to the bride and groom before they sauntered off to cut the cake.

After attacking the cake with the sharpest knife they could find it was time for the customary first dance. Monkeyman lead Isobel to the specially rezzed dance floor at  the back of the hall as they poseballed their was through the first dance with everybody else jumping in and boogies with all manner of poorly animated dances, yes that chicken dance did make a appearance.

I think we can all agree it was a fantastic wedding and thanks to all the people who came to support them on their special day. 27 people, all members of the GFC came and witnessed them getting married which is a great achievement and shows how supportive the group is when good people have their day.

Special thanks must go to Thomas Acker for finding the wonderful church and taking the service, 6 of  9 (Yalene Resident) for getting everything sorted in the small space of time she had to do it it, Tails Cluny for decorations and Kaori for dresses and fashion tips.

Monkey's Stag (Bachelor) Party

Another Saturday evening, relaxing on top of my shuttle in the sandbox, as one does, when along comes Richardjrn. He pulls up a deckchair and joins me in the sun, when only minutes later Monkey appears and crashes out too - another deckchair. Finally, arrives Dustin, and the four of us relax.

Conversation moves slowly, the relaxed manner of friends and comrades enjoying the day, when talk moves to Monkey's pending nuptuals - clearly he's a man in love, if Isobel could've heard his excitement her heart would have swelled to bursting.

Anyway, the talk of weddings continued, but something was missing - something wasn't quite right. It took only moments before it came to me! With only hours of freedom remaining, Monkey hadn't had a bachelor party! The for of us were all here, the mood was set - time to celebrate!

The bloodwine was poured, the romulan ale uncorked and the strippers were ordered. Then sent away again. Monkey's excitement at being married was evident for all, and a fun time was had.

I persisted in ordering the strippers, but he's nothing if not a man true to his word and Monkey refused. We relaxed in the sun instead, enjoying each others company.

It turns out, you don't need topless ladies of dubious morals, when you have good friends and a deckchair to sit on. So with that, good luck Monkey and Isobel - I think I speak for everyone when I wish you many happy years of marriage.
