Blurry monitor problems here. It's nice that the British papers can do this for us, isn't it?

CoM, yeah, it's a Navy thing. Meaning no disrespect to anyone, servicemember or civilian, but it's you and the scrap of humanity crowded on a ship versus something whose awesomeness is exceeded only by space, and by God. A storm at sea is a life-changing experience.

Just a note following your post about the sea.My Dad was in the Navy in the First World War and crossed the Atlantic 28 times. He was in the Troop Transport section, and the stories he could tell about the Stormy North Atlantic in the winter
