HMS PennyDreadnought
Message From The Bridge
My early disembark from the Good Ship HMSPenny4PM has temporarily furled my topsail and delayed my path through the wine dark briny. However, Im not dropping anchor, instead I shall reset my azimuth angle and renew my course.
As I enter deeper waters I intend to settle matters relating to the crew and lieutenant on board HMS LizWuss. I have prepared an orange flare as a warning after
bellicose messages semaphored off shore landed on my deck. When the time comes Ill tack to starboard and broadside.
My support for the next Admiral SahibRish is conditional
First all naval personnel must pipe me aboard to Rule Brexitannia
I shall require all female navy ratings to wear dresses and male navy ratings trousers to distinguish them by sex. This neatly gets round the controversy over gender self-identification
A cutter up the Thames in full livery is to be crewed by women NCOs skippered by me.
A 21 gun salute from Greenwich will announce the formalisation of my naval rank from honorary Captain (Reservist) to full rank Commodore.
Finally, I would expect a senior rank in the new crew of HMS SahibRish.
I would be more than happy to accept the offer of First Mate.
