Hopefully this is not case of "exception proves the rule" and things really start going well now.

Agree Kraznyi, good work Astute, let's hope that this means smooth sailing from now on. :up:

Reminds me of the first firing by HMS Splendid in '98. I was in the crewroom at work and everyone gave a little cheer when the news footage showed it blowing up a building.

Until the reporter said it had hit a replicated communications center, then everyone went stoney-silent - comms was our bread and butter. :cry:

Good luck Astute, pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and smile, smile, smile.

The UK have put much faith in her and her class...the only serious limitation being the three month maximum period of provisions she can carry.
