RE: GMG Contract deliveries.

Good day to you all. Just let you all know the BES Whittle along with the BES Darwin successfully delivered shipments to Fujisawa Station and returned to Leeds with H-Fuel thanks to the assistance of Miss Kiriko.Hidamari.

The BES Johnson did set off on the expedition with us but fell afoul of technical difficulties near Planet Bonn. Some trouble with engine cooling systems and had to dock for repairs.
I managed to scout ahead for the Darwin until Miss Kiriko.Hidamari rendezvoused with us in Frankfurt and then scouted for us to Okinawa.

Fujisawa station is like a second home to me now, I'€™m even getting use to drinking Saki; it'€™ll never replace tea though.

On a more serious note we encountered a possible pirate;
Ship ID: Devil.Wings
IFF: Freelancer.

He dropped the lane in Honshu and then Cruise Disrupted me as I tried to high tail it to the next ring. If it wasn'€™t for Miss Kiriko.Hidamari I'€™m not sure if we would have made it back to old Blighty!

As to whether it was really a pirate you'€™d have to ask Miss Hidamari; unfortunately she was admitted to hospital on Planet Cambridge at the end of our trip. She became quite unwell returning from Okinawa and :Cly: had to take control of the ship and went into Emergency Protocol as her life signs were weakening.

After we had secured the ship and unloaded the H-Fuel my crew and I hitched a lift with Mr Caine on the BES Carter to Cambridge to see Miss Hidamari but the medical staff wouldn'€™t let us in.

We'€™ve been camped out in the waiting room all night; living off tea and short-cake waiting for news.

As soon as we know more I'€™ll call back.

James Barnes.
