Hallo Sub,
Tried to find a Grand High Admiral around here without success.
(There might still be one dozing somewhere in Kiel or Koblenz I suppose😁)
So you'll have to make do with me😉
Thanks for the excellent report👍
Glad to hear that the training programme is progressing. Good work.
Weather not very clement here either 🌧️🌪️🌩️🌧️
So I'm battening down the hatches for the night to ride it out.
Western Squadron seems to still be on Covert Operations, anti Oklahoman Rabbit Patrols🙄
I'm beginning to wonder if Lt. jg Errol is exceeding his authority!
G'night. FLEET OUT// 💤

To - Lord High Admiral, RNHQ, Munchen.
The Bristol Channel patrol together with the two Welsh vessels spent today, Friday, with the crew receiving intensive instruction in traditional coastal navigation. This will be put to practical use on our next patrol. Weather is still very inclement.

Another trip on Waverley from Swansea to Ilfracombe or even Lundy Island, is definitely on the cards again. Thank you Nicola, I'd vote SNP if that was possible in Wales.

Good News. The Scottish Government have announced that they will make a grant of one million pounds to the Waverley boiler refit appeal.
Apologies to Marky, did not see your post.
