How Nelson might have fared if he’d been subject

Welcome to Tarboard HT. Never was a truer word said in jest. I've just finished taking a party of ten Brits on a 1,400 km rail trip around Poland. We drove trains and trams, climbed cranes, crawled over everything that didn't have 'radiation hazard' stickers attached, drank copious amounts of potentially explosive liquids and generally had a whale of a time. I suspect in the UK the so-called saftey case wouldn't have made it past the first full stop.
