Fantastic to see such #success on this morning’s Lt Cdr promotion signal for those in BRNC, RNLA and URNU. Huge BZ to Lieutenants Harvey, Milsom, Molyneux-O’Callaghan, Osborne, Stevens, Shenton and Woodward. BZ also to those who have recently left us! #ThursdayMotivation

It appears CURNU now have the facilities for winter sports - Ice Skating anyone?

[URNU Bristol @URNUBristol]

Our OCs are racing to the top! With the challenge of together climbing the equivalent height of Mount Everest, Bristol URNU has been getting its exercise in this lockdown.

Some of our OCs have enjoyed the panoramic views of Bath and Bristol as shown in the pictures.

Members of Wales URNU took part in a 33 minute workout tonight in honour of #CaptainTomMoore and to recognise the £33 million he raised for the NHS.

Big thanks to the OC’s who ran the yoga and circuit phys sessions this week! Great way to get fit and focus the mind in lockdown!

[HMS Trent @HMSTrent]

The art of bringing a 2000 tonne warship alongside a stranded swimmer takes practice practice practice.

Thats why "MOBEXs" and deployment of the "Swimmer of the Watch" is something we do every time we sail.

AB(SEA) Massie described the water today as "Refreshing"!

It's #SafetySunday on @HMSTrent

You've seen it before and you'll see it again. You might wonder why so many RN Ship's twitter feeds show this scene?

[URNU Solent @URNUSolent]

This week SURNU has been competing against other URNUs in an intense “Race to the Summit”. A virtual race to run/walk gaining elevation of 8,849M, the height of Mt Everest.

Thanks to the geography of Portsmouth and Southampton are OCs have had to try some “creative” climbing..

[URNU Solent @URNUSolent]

Here’s @HMSLedbury inbound to Portsmouth at sunset this evening, taken from the Round Tower by one of our OCs.

Where do bad rainbows go? The answer is ‘Prism’, not BRNC. Diversity of thought is so prevalent at the College it has created a rainbow over the local area! BZ ‘Ants’ the postman for the fantastic photos! #FridayFeeling

If a 4* General can open up about his mental health struggles then we all can. Don’t bury your worries, talk to friends, family and loved ones, their opinion of you will not waver they will listen and help. #TimeToTalk

[URNU Wales @URNUWales]

Why not call a friend and try these puzzles. It could get you talking...
