La de da, you pedantic so and so :rotfl:
It's an arbitrary number which I used to illustrate the point about interferance with our navy and how it could be dealt with. I didn't say 'anyone had said that' lol
Maybe I should have rephrased it to read "for example, any vessel coming within 500m of any British warship or boarding party... "
lol
