I would like to congratulate 10W for his infinite patience in trying to explain to the great unwashed and some others that I had previously considered to be professional as to why the Nat Tracks were so far north that day.
Those who have no Atlantic experience should think twice about commenting.
I always made a point of explaining to the punters in the back exactly why we were over the Ice Cap on the way from London to Los Angeles (or New York if the winds were really bad).
P.S. Does anyone else remember the weather ships?
