Thanks again for the warm welcome - very decent of you.

Well my latest patrol is at this stage rather hairy: After losing a crew member (sadly not Bernard) to several attacking Sunderlands (of which 3 were downed) I've dived to 90 with only 14m or so under keel to spare and am being pursued by said Sunderlands and a lone Destroyer. Hopefully I can get out to live another day. Hold thumbs for me - Im stuck in a somewhat shallow channel between Northern Ireland and Scotland (the grid name eludes me; AM68 possibly?).

Some Sunderlands calling in the Destroyer for help:

Umm, Dud--not a good place to be. Hope you'll make it back.:rock:

Looking at the distance between the destroyer and yourself, and presuming you still have an eel or two left........continue heading away at slow ahead whilst reloading your tubes, then rise to PD and sink the basum if he continues to pester you.

The planes should fly off after a few passes.
