No punctuation in the 24 hr format, because that is the way it is done.

Yes you do need passports, but not visa's to go to New Zealand or vice versa, and with England and Scotland, they are part of Great Britain, so no passport or visa is required.

Yep one in the same

Thanks for that Will, I will get to work to correct them, and maybe aske my editors bf to spank him for being a naughty boy for not picking up the errors... lol

The next morning, I was in no mood in doing more gardening, as I still ached all over, so I decided to take a drive and do some exploring of the city, which I had visited only a few times, while in the Navy. After a long walk through Kings Park, I decided to explore more of the rivers in Perth, so I headed across the bridge to South Perth, and stopped by to look at the river and its surrounds. I decided that I needed to have a closer look, since environmental science is one of my specialties

Trenton’s POV Happy with what they had worked out, for the students, I left Mitchell to go through the plan to make sure it was ok, while I went to find my cousin, and arriving in the Junior officer’s lounge on Deck 2, I found myaunt and cousin chatting. “Hello Trenton, this is your first cousin Wallace” Natalia said making the introductions, and I shook mycousins’ hand and welcomed him onboard the Aquaria. “Why don’t you both go down to Deck 5 and get settled into your suite, and by the

Trenton knew that his cabin was one of two, that are about a metre bigger than the other ten junior officer cabins, and that it is not much smaller than the senior officers cabins on the bridge deck, also Trenton was lucky enough to have an extra small room adjoining his cabin, which is slightly bigger than a general crew members cabin, and Trenton uses it as his private study, plus a larger bathroom too, so he was happy with where he was and decided that he would decline the Captain’s offer to

Thanks everyone for your awesome comments Q

Trenton stared at the note for a few minutes, as it was the first time that the Captain had been so informal to him, also he was not aware that there are any guests on board, but he smiled as he looked at his watch and saw that it is 1855 hours, so quickly he worked out what to wear for dinner, before heading for a shower. Trenton made sure he was dressed perfectly, before making his way to the Bridge, to meet his Aunty Natalia for the first time. Returning to his cabin after a very enj

A great short story, well done mate. Q

The Captain sat in a chair nearby to where Trenton was seated and waited a few moments before speaking, “I know this is all quite a big shock for you, and you are welcome to take some time off, if you need to reassess your life, and decide what you want to do, now that you know the truth about why you are working here on Aquaria. I have been trying to get Hamysh to tell you the truth for some time. The other bit of news that you were not told, is that Hamysh’s youngest sister – Natalia, is m

Thanks for your comments. At the moment I have no plans for a book two, as I am busy writing two new stories at the moment. Q

Yes I am aware of all of this, and a reminder that the story is fiction...

At the end of the day, once all the crew were back on board, the Captain announced that we would be setting sail in a south westerly direction, for a 4200 km journey to Heard Island & MacDonald Island (HIMI). The Lloyd International Corporation has received special permission from the Australian Antarctic Division of the Department of Environment, to set up a mobile research station, which the “Aquaria” is perfect for, to do some medium-term research on the Island and the surrounding oce

I'm surprised no one picked up the percentage error, which I have just corrected

Maybe... have to wait and see.

For some time now, several private corporations have been collectively working together on various big projects, but this new project was a lot more expensive and monstrous in comparison to what they have worked on before. This was a project that was taking a different view on how to live and work on the high seas, this time they were looking at living and working just below the surface, on board a giant Research Submarine, which at 432 metres long, 58 metres wide, with a draft of 12 metres

A new and monstrous project, of building the biggest ever submarine, that is bigger than a cruise ship. A science research submarine that cruises the oceans of the world, to provide a variety of ocean research services, with the corporation establishing a base in an unexpected location in the North Pacific. Please comment, react, follow, review and recommend my story. I’m always looking to improve with new stories… Regards Q

Australian seems to be the continent with the most venomous animals and insects in the world. Scorpions, snakes and spiders being the main ones.
