yea jimbuna....thats why theres all different types of tartan to choose from....always try get something nice.....you wouldnt want to pull an ugly sheep!!!!

p.s hear the one about the scotsman that invited his new english neighbour to a "hootenanny"

the english guy says "whats a hootenanny?"

the scots guy says "plenty eating, plenty drinking...and plenty *********G!!"

"oh good" says the english chap ...." i'll have to wear something nice!! "

"needin't bother " says the scots guy

"it'll just be you and me!!":o

Yep.....but twas a slightly longer version....good all the same :up:

How about this one: ;)

Two Scottish businessmen in Edinburgh were sitting down for a break in their soon-to be new store. As yet, the store wasn't ready, with only a few shelves set up.

One said to the other, 'I bet any minute now some thick tourist is going to walk by, put his face to the window and ask what we're selling.'

No sooner were the words out of his mouth when, sure enough, a curious

Englishman walked to the window, had a peek, and in a broad English accent asked

'What are you selling' here

One of the men replied sarcastically,

'We're selling arse-holes.'

Without skipping a beat, the Englishman said,

'You are doing well ... Only two left!'

:p ;)

But I've really had a lot of success up at AN 14, near the Shetlands. There's a ton of traffice going through there early in the war, and most of it is unescorted, or escorted by smaller patrol ships. The water isn't terribly deep (~100M), but I've been able to shake destroyers without too much effort so long as the water is a little rough (6+). Also, I love that the waters seem to be calmer there. I don't know if that's just coincidence or if it's built into the game somehow, but I get a lot of deck gun kills around the area. There doesn't seem to be a lot of RAF cover (compared to the East/West coasts), and the only big problem is wasting time tracking down the odd sailboat posing as a merchant. Despite the proximity of Scapa, it doesn't seem to be a factor.

So how about it, anyone else like hunting off England's northern tip?

And because I'm sure some experienced sub commander will read this, I'll cram in an extra question: When transiting from one base to another, with a Null patrol zone, do you have free reign to hunt around on that transit, or should one simply make for their new port ASAP?

Can I just correct one thing it is not Englands northern tip :nope:but the Northern tip of Scotland.

Since when :hmm:

Next you'll be telling everyone that part of the west coast of Enland is called Wales ;)

England, Britain, UK, whatever. The whole thing, and most of Europe, could fit in my backyard. It's like called one blade of grass Canada, and the one beside it US. The Northern Part of the Little Islands- happy? :lol:
