Default Battle of Camperdown

@ Cornwallis:
You caught me there. But well, I donated my own spell checker to Kapitan some weeks ago...

And, by the way, I have deep admiration for the RN, just like many people in our navy. And I know the RN has admiration for ours too.
It's just that we think we are a bit better...

I can't resist such an invitation.
Here I go:

Drunk last night, drunk the night before..
Gunna get drunk tonight like I never got drunk before..
For when I am drunk I'm as happy as can be..
Cause I am a moderator of the Subsim family...

Now I check out to live up to the words of the song...
Cause if you don't keep your word you're utterly wrong...
I did it yesterday, I did it the night before...
I'll do it tonight and then once more...

Sarcasm can be the lowest form of wit or somebody does not look at the names at the top of the topic page!Tak's post is also spam!
The battle of Camperdown took place shortly after the mutiny of the navy at the Nore.

Well, in Holland they say that being a drunk makes you an honest guy.
I've been trying hard to hide it for as long as I could, but I felt that by now, I might as well come out of the closet and give you the shocking news.

From Simpsons episode 9F22:

Marge: Lisa, you got a letter.
Lisa: It's from my pen-pal Anya! [reads]
Anya: [voice over] Dear Lisa, as I write this, I am very sad. Our
president has been overthrown and
[voice changes to that of a man]
replaced by the benevolent general Krull. All hail Krull and his
glorious new regime! Sincerely, Little Girl.

Tak are you saying that TLAM is really a Simpson's two dimensional cartoon character?The flagship of the dutch admiral was taken in the battle.
