Nelson: Hoist the Signal, Hardy.
Hardy: Aye Aye, Sir!
Nelson: Hold on, that's NOT what I dictated to the Signal Officer!
Hardy: Sorry, Sir!
Nelson: (Reading Aloud)
'England expects every person to do their duty, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religious persuasion or disability'
.....What gobbledygook is this?
Hardy: Admiralty policy, I'm afraid Sir. We're an Equal Opportunities employer now....We even had the devil's own job getting 'England' past the censors!
Nelson: Gadzooks! Hand me my pipe & tobacco!
Hardy: Sorry Sir, all Naval vessels have been designated smoke-free working environments
Nelson: In that case, break open the rum ration!
Hardy: That's abolished Sir. Part of the Governments policy on binge drinking.
Nelson: Damn my eyes, whatever happened to 'Rum, sodomy and the lash'?
Hardy: As I explained Sir, rum is off the menu, and there's a ban on corporal punishment.
Nelson: What about sodomy?
Hardy: That's legal now Sir
Nelson: In that case...Kiss me Hardy!
