    Default Remember Nelson!

    The Admiral of the Fleet hereby instructs all shipmates who sail under British colours to remember Lord Nelson on this historic day. Ships to be dressed overall, and the mainbrace to be spliced at the end of the afternoon watch.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    Yes. It was a present from my wife.

    She ordered it from an artist who sawed up an original commemorative coin. It's really a beautiful piece.
