Ship's locationPassing Cloch Point (Firth of Clyde, Scotland) outbound on patrol

Sadly it's heavy rain and you cannot clearly see the large and strong escort of Defence Police Boats, Royal Navy patrol vessels and heavily armed Royal Marines in RIB's.    Any vessel or pleasure craft which approaches the convoy is very quickly intercepted and strongly warned to keep well clear.   No nonsense about it.
