Scottish Ghost Tanker
 

I sneaked into Aberdeen on a cold, eerie, misty night and spotted what looked like an old tanker sitting at dock. We fired two torps into her, .....nothing, not a sound. Got a bit closer, could just make her decks out thanks to the full moon. She was a sort of creepy shimmering light blue :huh:
We opened fire with the deck gun, ......again there was no sound, except from the gun itself,.......and then,... it just vanished, like it was never there. :o
I've never seen my crew turn so white, we legged it out of there sharpish.
A word of warning to all ye bold mariners, beware the Scottish ghost tanker, stay away from Aberdeen on cold foggy nights....
Ye've been warned. :down:

Interesting. Thanks. I'll look for it.


:cool:

Oooooooh, creeepy. Those damned Scots. Its the druids I tell ya.

That'll be the Flying Dutchman, the Scotsman is a train LOL :roll:

Thanks Oberon, proud to use it too :up:

Uh huh. :roll:

Unmöglich dünkt mich’s, daß ich nenne
die Länder alle, die ich fond:
das eine nur, nach dem ich brenne,
ich find es nicht, mein Heimatland!

I believe what he saw was the Loch Ness Tanker.

I think Kaleun should leave the schnapps in harbor for his next patrol.

Heh, Heh. Do you have a seaman by the name of Bernard on board, your ship per chance? :lol:

In that case, it definately was the Loch Ness Tanker :)

lol, seriously! Leave MY Bernard alone! I miss him! I want him back to my boat!!!! :D

I dare you to venture into Aberdeen harbour on a cold foggy night
without a bottle of schnapps, take a clean pair of pants with you :o
