Sorry, but can't let it go.

The Tory's what?

The Tory's game of trying to be seen to be decisive and powerful perhaps? Wasn't it an S class boat that had left Gib to return to Blighty only for the press to jump up and down bleating that it was going South?

Thought there was a "guzzunderthesea" presence down there pretty well permanantly anyway ... but even if there wasn't how would anyone know? ... its not as if they make their presence known!

The move follows months of antagonism from Argentina, led by Cristina de Fernandez Kirchner, the South American country's first female president since Eva Peron.

The Mail, what a bunch of c0cks. Eva Peron was not President. Isabel Peron was and came after Eva so whichever way you look at it, the Mail is writing out of its arrse. None of the 250 comments on the Mail website called bullshit. This is how dumbing down starts, people believe journalists are here to provide education.

There is ALWAYS at least one of our submarines on a fully 'war loaded' patrol off the Falklands. Two when they are handing over.

Isn't there?

Not always, we have one out the Gulf all the time at the mo, too many commitments, too few boats. I'm betting Turbs won't de-commission in July.

That's my point Seadog, I did call bullshit and it wasn't posted ....

Wrecks - read the small print!! It was a post designed as misinformation, but don't tell anyone! There would have been an emoticon, but hey, you know how it is!

Now, I have just heard from a personal, highly placed source that the S boats are being refitted for SA patrols..........

How does one refit S boats for SA patrols. Are they painted like giant penguins or more appropriately like killer whales? ( smiley emoticon)

I did ping the small print, it's amazing how many people think the Donut is alongside in Rosyth but don't tell anyone FFS!
