Don't want to go sailing. I get seasick. Nelson got seasick and just look what happened to him 200 years ago today.
Hey, Ed, does Ransome ever mention Trafalgar? The only children's book I can think of that mentions Trafalgar is either THE GOLDEN AGE or DREAM DAYS by Kenneth Grahame (THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS author) when Selina dances round a bonfire in honour of the day.
