Well, it would have to be hard not to be pissed when your son gets hurt, even though he knows it's a risk.
-
It's hard to like older men who buy you stuff. That's the secret to being old and creepy. :-)

That was my bad. He is second in line, preceded by his brother, The Prince of Wales. The Prince had no legitimate surviving children, which is why the throne will pass to Clarence, as William IV.

I'm glad you liked it. I'm known for my happy endings. ;-)

I think she did regret it immediately, but what do you do when you've said something like that that you didn't mean to say, but it's how you feel?
-
I didn't use Arial because it was too similar to Verdana. Century Gothic isn't an option. (It is here on the forums, but not on GA Stories.

I think JP will largely stay in the background and bide his time before he deals with Kristin.
-
Thanks guys! I'll try to post the next chapter as soon as I can.
-
I think the rift with Wally and Clara was bound to happen.
-
Thanks. I might stick with that or switch to Courier.

The Duke of Portland. He was a formidable Whig politician.

Well, naval life is a risky business.

Ah, but he's our hero. Surely he must escape. Besides, who can blame him?
-
That would be Winkler. He'll be the matchmaker. LOL

You mean the "too good to be true" adage? Nope, don't think he has.
-
I think George is one of those men (you know the type..like all of us) who loves his own freedom but has a hard time when his lovers want the same thing.
-
I suspect you're right. A duel perhaps? I'll have to send Granger East again at some point.
-
Thank you. Just the type of thing the real Jervis would have done.

Jervis is interesting to write. He was ruthlessly efficient, and his distaste for aristocrats was well known. He is given credit for creating the efficient tool (fleet) that Nelson would use at the Nile and Trafalgar.
-
He's very adventurous, isn't he? You forget all the foreign dick. ;-)
-
Arthur is one of those men who always seems to have some bad timing.

Good points. You think I need more credible opponents. But here's the deal: the navy was somewhat insular, and that's where their power base is. Besides, Admirals are created based on seniority, not merit.

Howard is the quintessential RN Captain. Doggedly goes in and just blasts the enemy all to hell.
-
Just like nowadays. If you have a secure financial base, you have a lot more options.
-
You nailed it. Social equals, but far apart in age and naval rank.
