banterer

By agreement, Musquito shared the prize money with Desiree, Banterer and Cretan.

He was wounded again in 1857 while commanding HMS Banterer in Chinese waters.

Five ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Banterer:

She was ordered in January 1805 as HMS Banter but her name was lengthened to Banterer on 9 August of that year.

(Mick just may be rock's third-greatest banterer, after the Hives' Howlin' Pelle and Van Halen's David Lee Roth.)

HE was still every inch the childlike kidder in need of Ritalin, the warp-drive banterer of a thousand voices, the sweaty satirist scathingly on top of the day's events.

"I give you no commission," replied D'Artagnan, with that calmness which never abandons the banterer; "I thought it would be easy for you to announce to his majesty that it was I who, being there by chance, did justice upon Menneville and restored things to order."

However, the difficulty of moving so many ships in a narrow channel no more than 200 yards wide, with a strong current and with mud banks covered by shallow water on each side, moving gunboats through the channel proved to be a great risk and it was not long before Banterer and Starling were aground.
