Not sure how well it shows in the pic, but the contrails have painted a union flag in the sky. How very patriotic of them! 🤣
@stueytheround Wow, that is awesome. Heart of oak😂
@JLong Steady, boys! Steady ⚓
@JLong In case that made no sense, the official anthem of the Royal Navy is "Heart of Oak" and the chorus goes
Heart of oak are our ships,
Jolly Tars are our men;
We always are ready,
steady, boys, steady!
@stueytheround
Aahh that clawed the jam off my back🤣 I need it for an alarm-clock. I'm a fan of HMS anything, Napoleonic era especially.
@JLong You should talk to Eleanor. She was a seagoing WReN for ten years and she *loves* history!
Hey @Mauve_matelot wanna spin some dits?
@stueytheround @Mauve_matelot
Any book suggestions would be very welcome. I'm hoping to cross the pond this year and visit a friend, as well as every museum i see🤣
@JLong Well if that's the case, I'll see you when you get to Plymouth because any lover of British Naval History must come to visit 😁

@stueytheround @JLong the Mayflower Museum has been recently updated following #Mayflower400 https://www.visitplymouth.co.uk/things-to-do/mayflower-museum-p928703
@Mauve_matelot @stueytheround
