Hehe that was pretty close - the correct one is: "Don't talk to me about Naval Traditions! It's nothing but rum, buggery and the lash." Sadly, it wasnt Winston who said it, altough it was (and is) widely believed. However, Churchill did say he wished he had made the remark, so we'll accept it as a genuine Churchill quote anyway
As for bottoming and the TC trick in SH Commander - if you rest at the bottom at high TC you will suffer continuous damage, but at low TC it's usually okay.
