Well well well

Well jolly hockeysticks, there is nothing like the high seas to surprise the weary crow's nest eyes of an old sailor, and there is another sighting of the old tug, the HMS Cheezlewhit, and old iron ore barge that was adapted and pressed into service right at the beginning of the campaign against Napoleon, young Napoleon who is a bit of a marauder and a young men's mannykin on the field. Waterloo comes and goes but somehow this young Napoleon seems to survive the worst of our artillery. This may be a job for the Irish troops pressed ganged into service with Wellington if not Cardigan.
