Abikans rule the waves



It was a proud day for the Abikan Maritime Self-Defence Force, as its top destroyers, SS Tora-san, SS Waki Kauru and HMS Yaki Tori steamed for the far shores of Lake Abiko to protect vital shipping lanes from pirates. Under the constitution, they cannot of course protect vessels from Kashiwa or Kohoku, but Abikans can sleep easier tonight. Phew.

Apologies, the very topical photo I was thinking of turned out to be a clear memory, if I were you I'd unbate the breath and nip to the loo now. I might make something of the photos I've got, at some point before hell freezes over.
