Think I've told this before but basically I was steering a warship in the middle of the night and the compass went haywire.The backup gyro compass failed and we were in limbo for about 30 minutes.

Guess it would have been dark as it was about 3am.The helm was an old fashioned one in the bowels of the ship.A big old brass ships wheel that you had to haul around.The officer of the watch informed us we were in thick fog.Thick fog.Sounds cliche I know but true. He is the one who can see out the window on the bridge.

I was alone on the flight deck one night as lifebuoy sentry and a flying fish hit me in the back of the head.Think it was in Biscay.Scared the shit out of me.I didn't know what had happened until I saw it flapping about on the deck.:D |
