..The Telegraph reported recently that as part of £1bn defence 'savings' £2 million will be saved by not sending HMS Prince of Wales to America next year for essential training as part of the Westlant Exercise.
They'll need all of that saving to repair the damage caused by the engine room leak while tied up in Pompey in October .....

In October .....? ... I didn't see this mentioned previous. Do I need to make more effort to keep up ?

Instead similar training will now take place in British waters
Notice to Mariners - British Waters will only become available for training after they've been pumped out of the POW.
