I must type fast and I must type silently! The unthinkable has happened. U-46 and her gallant Kaleun Harry Frank has been captured. Further operations are not possible. I am at my wits end.
What makes this harder to bear is that U-46 was not forced to surface after enemy action nor was she rendered incabable by the elements. No, it is less glorious... U-46 and GWX have been confiscated!!!!! What treachery I hear you cry! Treachery indeed I reply. I climbed from my bunk this morning after a hard weeks toil and prepared myself for a relaxing day of sinking enemy shipping and generally doing my bit for the Fatherland. My girlfriend however had other plans for my sunday. She took out the disc and substituted it for a cleaning cloth. Apparently she had friends calling round and the apartment had to be cleaned!!! I tried every reasonable argument. That I was an officer in the Kriegsmarine and under the Geneva Convention could not be forced to labour... that didn't work. I told her I didn't like her friends and shouldn't have to clean for them... that didn't work and earned me a dirty look. I pretended to be dead but after 3 mins I had to start breathing again so that obviously didn't work. I was defeated at that point. The end result was me cleaning the windows, the bathroom and scraping what was possibly the cure for something off the inside of the fridge door. Then I had to listen to inane babble about crap and pretend to like people. At last the house is peaceful once more but I cant find where she hid the disc and I'm not about to wake her up to ask her. And I have to be in work in 7 hours. My weekend is gone. ![]()
