Oh, I didn't realize you are British. :lol  You don't have your location below your avatar.

I have a friend who seems to wish he were born in the UK during the empire days.  It's very funny. :P

Im a huge tallship sailor and I made a pilgrimage to portsmouth 2 summers ago to see the victory, very impressive. But I would have love to have fought in that battle, what and impressive sight it would have been.
