British warship in 'routine' Gibraltar visit
Would probably have gone unnoticed if recent events over fishing rights hadn't taken place.

 Could well be routine, plenty popped in for my two visits. Just wait for the marines to storm the wrong beach again.

 Per Mare Per Muddum!  EDIT: A quick google tells me that they're actually Arty boys rather than Marines, so I think we'll let them off. |

I can't believe that Illustrious has deployed on this exercise. Still, all those Whitehall pen pushers could launch paper aeroplanes from it. The Spanish must be bricking it.
