Seriously, British and French Navy, name another ship Temeraire, I dare you.

Every time I read "Ship of the Line" I think of a moving assembly line which I just don't think is quite right for ships built 17th-19th century.

So now I've spent about an hour reading about that and the Temeraire ships on wikipedia.

And what first-, second, third and fourth ( Read more... )

ships, stars, things i spend my time on, temeraire

Name ALL the ships Temeraire!

And now you have to explain all about first-, second-, third- and forthrate ships to me tomorrow:)

That would be seriously cool. I completely fail at stars, only this weekend I learned that Karlavagnen inte är en skottkärra, som jag alltid trott, utan en häst-och-vagn-vagn, which off course makes much more sense, but I'd never thought of it that way. (Go Swinglish!) When we retire we should spend our days taking random ground lever courses at university and learn everything.

Lätt att vi ska. Den första kvällskursen jag läste i musikvetenskap var typ så, typ fem unga och resten medelålders och pensionärer :P

OT, but I was wondering if Granby knew about Laurence and Roland... and then I read that part in BPW where Temeraire asks Laurence if he doesn't prefer being with Roland to masturbating right infront of Granby xD

OT #2, I got a toy dragon from Mum today :D I named him Rubus Idaeus, to he mostly goes by only Rubus.

Lol, I read that scene yesterday:P It's so random. I mean, really, what kind of book har a dragon-masturbation joke?:P I'm actually surprised Laurence doesn't die from emarrassment.

Aw, you should bring it and it could make friends with my Krak-Drak:P

Black Powder War, obviously :P No, I know what you mean. I picture Laurence looking like this: D: most of the time xD

Now that I think about it, Emily knew too, didn't she? Laurence is so indiscret when it comes to delicate subjects..
