Barely worth a mention and hardly wardroom territory, but I've somehow managed to do enough to become an ordinary seaman before the final storm hits - so hoist a pot or two & a glass for those at the top table to help me celebrate. Huzz-ahrr !

Cheers, Ordinary Seaman Dave!
I will taske a drop to celebrate your elevation Dave and Mike.
Bligh.
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.
Huzzah to the two of you!

Splendid, Rob, I have an Anchorage founding member award on the 'drome which would have been appropriate here if the lower decks were not awash already.
Church parade today to wet the young shaver's head, so I'm on best behaviour !

Cheers Dave. I'll have a pot o' grog if there is any to go around.
Better to break it out before the ship slips under, Peter, and what better way to celebrate my latest shiny !
