Well, not really, but I suppose you could say that, seeing as the Gods conspired against me I don't think I had much choice in the end

What I missed most was meeting Neal and the folk/friends I made in Texas again last year.

I'm generally the first to accuse people of making up bull****ting excuses and took my RL demands a little too seriously as a result at first.

But hey! there is always next year.

At least I didn't spend the time in jail like my friend James/undersealance corporal

If next year in London becomes a reality I would feel as if I'd made up for the despair I felt this year.

Ya gotta give those "Waves" credit for they helped build and repair planes during WWII


WAVES aircraft mechanics working on a SNJ aircraft, Naval Auxiliary Air Station,
Whiting Field, Pensacola, Florida, United States, circa 1943-1945; note Pratt
& Whitney R-1340 Wasp radial engine.



WAVES Aviation Machinist's Mates working on a SNJ training plane and its Pratt & Whitney R-1340 radial engine, Naval Air Station, Jacksonville, Florida, United States, 24 July 1943

So why not let them work on our Subs?

Reading this Google page of "Navy women on submarines" sure makes it very believable.

I'll be there with you next time.

To keep OT ... Lets see what happens when the first one gets knocked uo while on patrol.

I missed you too, honestly

In fact, until Horsa showed up, I was ready to declare the meet a failure--no Brits at a Subsim meet? It just ain't right.

Thankfully, Horsa carried the water for all you Brits who cannot travel out of your pwn country I don't wanna hear anymore about Americans don't travel abroad

Believe me! I wanted to go. However, it was far outside the scope of what I could afford to pay... AND I had to study for my certification exam that fell on the weekend of the meet.

I'd have LOVED to have a nice little heart-to-heart conversation with Carotio.

That's the great thing about these meetings, you really get a chance to know these people we call Subsim guys in a good setting. We all have our quirks and personalities, but I have not found a case yet where I cannot enjoy speaking with another fellow at a meet.

While you are drinking and partying at the meeting , the Barbarinna is on Patrol in the Arabian Gulf, saving your asses.
