Actual conversation between English and Irish!
This is the transcript of the ACTUAL radio conversation between the
British and the Irish, off the coast of Kerry. Radio conversation:
IRISH:
Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South, to avoid a collision.
BRITISH:
Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the North, to avoid a collision.
IRISH:
Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.
BRITISH:
This is the Captain of a British navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.
IRISH:
Negative. I say again. You will have to divert YOUR course.
BRITISH:
THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER HMS BRITANNIA!
THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE BRITISH ATLANTIC FLEET.
WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS, AND NUMEROUS
SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH,
I SAY AGAIN, THAT IS 15 DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER-MEASURES WILL BE
UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.
IRISH:
We are a lighthouse. Your call.
