Stopped over at Rotchester to get some grub after a delightful stay at Vierlande. What a pigs ear that was, the warden couldn't see why I had been arrested for essentially transporting rubbish. I told him about the officer's idea that I would be selling scrap to Liberty, “might as well be selling H fuel to the Kusari” I said “If it'd been anything else I could of understood but scrap of all things? Not on your life.” Fella seemed to agree with me but he said the system registers all ships who dock so I'd still be on record regardless, he'd issue me with the smallest sentence possible a mere four hours which wasn't too bad.
Well since I was stuck there I made good use of the time examining the tradelane piece. Didn't make much headway really though I did discover the piece suffered two simultaneous explosions, the first doesn't seem to have carried enough force to dislodge the piece however the impact caused enough heat to weaken the metal which was then dislodged by the second explosion, all within a fraction of a second. I've noticed small pockets of foreign material on the edge of the damaged section, could be the remains of whatever held this piece in situ.

I'm heading to Trafalgar now currently waiting for traffic at the California gate, no doubt some hapless sod has been pirated again. Think I'll head through Magellan, the IMG folks usually keep the lanes quiet.

Charlie: "Docking bay two is open Mac, hows your flight?"
Nigel: "Bloody long Charlie, I'll tell you about it tomorrow mate I just want me bed."
Charlie: "Fair enough lad, you can tell me at breakfast, you're buying."
Nigel: "Sod you, I paid last time."
Charlie: "Alright but no second helpings fatboy."
Nigel: "Yeah yeah, cheers Charlie. Oh forgot I had this on..."
