Prince Henry the Navigator was found to be wearing a hairshirt at the time of his death in 1460- In short you'll be right in style and a submarine is a bit cloistered at that. Of course a change of pace (and less itchiness) could involve self- flagellation during your contrite evening vespers, I'm sure the missus has one of her ol' whips laying about- probably next to the French maid outfit!-YOU ENGLISH! BOTTOM LINE: We bilgerat pigboaters prefer our padres painfully penitent Some sacramental wine will ease the pain

Ok, I don't mind wearing the Lady Sailor outfit, although I might need some help filling the frontage. As for the hair shirt, as long as I avoid the spiky steel jock-strap a steady supply of sacramental wine or bilge brew will definitely make things more comfortable. I really need to get an air freshener for the 'confession booth' after Kaptlt.Endrass blew back the poop tank discharge system by mistake on his 1st day...
