Ahoy

Well me hearties, we are on the rudder today, steering the HMS Repulse through unchartered waters in the southern seas to the south of Tasmania where the young devilish captain Eric D'Arcy is pilotting a curious rag bag of ships in his colonial flotilla. His own old tugboat cum flagship of the Hudson is the SS Paedoscare was originally commissioned in Germany on the coast at Kiel not a million miles from Bonn, where a secret meeting of old guard shipwrights put together a plan to blow a hole in the western navies of UK & Ireland, and these seadogs were fighting like the doyliedog seapitbull terrier of a tug as ever for the grey longcoats of the avid Russians and the pot-boiler French. The old Prussian general Blucher would have turned in his grave had he ever found about this little secret group of seadogs and their boys who wished to plunge the western navies into crisis not once but every week if not every year. Funny how little cunning napoleons blackmail whole nations and alliances into crisis. Funny how old German admirals should know better than to traduce their own alliance and their own country, but these grey higgs-bosons were on the up and up and wanted to make a name for themselves and their old grey Russian longcoats and liberal friends of Le Terreur of 1789. Revolutions - who actually needs them!!
