Sea trials begin

[Mervyn and Trish]

I see from Facecloth and Witter that Britannia's sea trials have begun. I think she's looking good. If all goes well I reckon they might have time to fit in a quick pre maiden test cruise (B501). I know it'll hack off some people who are daft enough to actually believe that booking the maiden means no-ones slept in your cabin or walked on your carpet before, but personally I'd quite like someone else to be the guinea pig while the chef is finding his way round the galley and the steward finding the socket for his vacuum cleaner so that all works perfectly once we're on board for B502.
