'History is written by the winners' 'tis often said. I thought members might be amused by the 'Google Alert' I received this morning - the Spanish version of British losses at Trafalgar, based on 'an extract from Admiral Collingwood's dispatch'. The fate of the Minotaur might be of particular interest to Tony. (Don't forget to update your website!)
