Okay.. I'm going to stay the hell out of the Channel !!!
(I somehow miraculously survived a ride through there last night... and there were not many naval ships about nor did any planes come after me. I guess they thought any sub jocky trying to go through there would be a suicidal idiot. You should have seen my crew's faces when I ordered "Full steam ahead into the channel")
It was fun watching the mines pass perilously close to my boat from external view.
I hope that Great Britain cleaned up after themselves well and that there still aren't any of those mines still hanging out there in RL.
