To the innermost heart of their own land they are known as the stars are known to the night; As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, moving in marches upon the heavenly plain, as the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness

To the end, to the end, they remain...

I'm privileged to serve on Council for The Society for Nautical Research and as a Trustee for The 1805 Club with absolutely fantastic people ⚓️

Take kids to study history.

Sometimes it might just stick 👀

I've edited a book with the Royal Navy Strategic Studies Centre, made documentaries and podcasts (including with childhood TV hero Horatio Hornblower himself, Ioan Gruffudd), have been elected an Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

After the 220th anniversary of Trafalgar, I'm thinking of the little girl taken to see HMS Victory & bought a book on Nelson.

27ish years later I've lectured internationally, including Antarctica & the Falkland Islands. I've delivered talks for the Royal Navy & taught at the US Naval Academy 🧵

The sighs emitted by this dog. Surrounded by toys, 3-4 walks a day, all the snacks, has claimed most of the household furniture as his own, and contributes nothing to the mortgage or bills...

What ails you, my little freeloader?

Cruelly dragged from Greece as a stray to live a life of hardship 🙄

Popped down to see Trafalgar being played by the Naval Wargames Society ⚓️

I should probably finish painting and rigging mine at some point...

I can post this on here because he doesn't use bluesky but is this not the best wrapping paper in the world? I am genuinely obsessed with it 😂

1yr go I took my friends spare Taylor Swift ticket because she broke up with her boyfriend. If I hadn't done that I wouldn't have ended up meeting / giving a lift home to an internet friend of mine who lived en route.

If I hadn't done that I wouldn't have realised I found this man attractive...
