Thanks, Timothy, let's see if you managed to repel boarders.Timothy Ferguson wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2020, 8:35 pm I recall reading Pepys's Diary, but it was just a short excerpt: mostly about his domestic relationships, and where he buried his cheese. 8)
Cochrane does seem to have come up with the idea of a swarm of patrol boats. It also reminds me of the swarm of zodiacs used in piracy in some places.
Section 10 is a problem one. Basically I had headphones on while recording and didn't realise that my cats and children were bleeding into the recording. I've tidied it up a lot, but if there's a random piratical yell, scooter thump or sound of a cat patiently lifting and dropping the edge of a piece of cardboard to sharpen her claws, can you tell me if it's too distracting? 8)

Hey, I heard no cats or children. I'm only marking it PL Notes because you accidentally edited out two words at 11:07.5, viz. "on favour", and the cut is noticeable. If you can't find the deleted words littering your hard drive, let me know if you think they are not important enough to bother about and I'll mark Section 2_10 PL OK.Timothy Ferguson wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2020, 8:35 pm

Section 11 is PL OK. Lord Auckland's letters probably made for easier reading than our hero's.Timothy Ferguson wrote: ↑January 3rd, 2020, 8:59 pm

Ah, no, this would be further brain-fade on my part. You may recall that I do not remember editing 11 and 12? I don't recall editing 13 either. I must have been really tired when I did them...

What a relief that our hero lived long enough to see himself publicly justified.
Best,

PL OK. Cochrane was onto something with the bitumen...Timothy Ferguson wrote: ↑January 9th, 2020, 4:56 am
