it was wierd.
also it was the first time i ever slipped into port with a type VIIc tho to be fair the weather was so bad i couldn't see the c3 until i was 300m from it.

Hartlepool :hmm: ...be very careful when cruising around that area :hmm: They once hung a monkey   |
thankfully i live near manchester so no worries there! 
scary that they actually hung a monkey though

The stories a true one...it was in the days of sail (napoleonic era I think). A French ship ran aground on coastal rocks and a monkey dressed in a French naval uniform was washed ashore amongst the debris (apparently it was popular in those days for skippers to have them as pets).
The locals realising the uniform was that of an enemy thought it must be a spy so they hung the poor little bugger ...And that my friend is a true story and not a 'wind up'  |
OMFG the poor uniform!!!
