A few people will have heard the transmissions about the underwater detonations in Ettrick Bay yesterday.
We saw two ships. I assume one would have been HMS Penzance. According to MarineTraffic.com the other was HMS Walney, but google suggests Walney is no longer in service. Anybody know for sure which warships were in the area?
Anybody know some detail about exactly what they were doing?
Edit: Sounds like it's common.
