Off topic but I find it comical that two nuclear subs with all their high tech equipment on board can collide in the vast regions of the Atlantic Ocean. One Royal Navy and one French sub are reportedly none the worse for the humiliating incident.

The First Sea Lord is telling the press that it was a complete accident and they just happen to bump into one another. :lol: :lol:

There are ships, boats and ship's boats. The boats may also carry ships from time to time but they do not have girls on board.

well that makes sense, it's one thing but we'll call it another just to confuse those that suffer with blonde moments :?
