At Mountains & The Sea, the retreat is open to all, but I hope to be able to offer something unique to the Military and Veteran Community. My experience both serving and working in the civilian world, I understand the value of that unique companionship yo…https://t.co/i26Jpu6Bzp

@OfficerofEngin1 Mate, I have just seen your post and I don't know you but I am RN Engineer (but had a good friend in the RE) married Japanese (similar age). I am so sorry to hear of your loss, maybe we can connect and talk.

The wife filling in for her sister (for about 20 secs) on the Canarian TV Chat Show 'Una Mala Noche' before performing as the Morimoto Sisters - aleays fun to watch them perform together and I am very proud of her.

@steve220459 @pinstripedline while also fulfilling many other maritime operations roles in the region that don't require a valuable air defence asset.

@steve220459 @pinstripedline I will back up Sir Humphrey's opinion. While the OPV may not be suitable for war fighting it is ideal for the other 2 elements of Maritime Power - Defence Engagement and Maritime Operations (Non Offensive). The power of Defence Engagement is ably demonstrated here. 1/2

@fullyTasteless @TheSubHunter1 The modern LNG tanker now has cargo tanks designed to take the liquid at -160 deg C and not pressurized - so look more like a normal tanker.

@cerysmatthews I am enjoying the sounds it brings back a lotbof memories!

[Charlie @ Mountains&TheSea @CommonDog]

@cerysmatthews as a submariner spending minths under the sea, the differents sounds would be part of the rythm of the day, with a cacophony at dawn and dusk as with the birds on land. With shrimp snapping, fish burping, dolphins squeking and whales moaning!

[Charlie @ Mountains&TheSea @CommonDog]

@nicholadrummond I should refine that in terms of RN Ships, global prescence and days at sea!

[Charlie @ Mountains&TheSea @CommonDog]

@nicholadrummond Well they are part of the Overseas Patrol Squadron... They are actually based on the Amzonas Class operated by Brazil and Thailand (HTMS Krabi). It will be hard to find a class of ship that is used more widely!

[Charlie @ Mountains&TheSea @CommonDog]

@maz_jovanovich The Spanish Air Force pilots fighting fires in Tenerife have been refilling by flying in the middle of the port of Santa Cruz - mountains one side, oil terminal the other and container terminal in front if you dont pull up in time!!
