Well We started out good. Picked up our cargo at Cardiff and started out for The ring. Omega-3 was all clear for bad boys and I quickly headed into Omega-7. While headed to the trade lane a Corsair cruiser undocked from the lane and opened fire with a how do you do. Needless to say it was over quick but me and the crew made it to Freistadt in the pod and took a transport back to Cambridge. Working on filling out the paperwork for a replacement heavy tanker. Dang we had just installed a pool table too. Depending on the insurance folks depends on when I am back running cargo again.

We had a tough time of it on a previous run. Then Sagittarius was attacked by a pirate in the Omegas, and badly damaged. We were able to get over to New Berlin, but we'd lost our cargo. The ship was docked for quite a while at the Ring getting repaired, and we just now made it back to Cambridge after almost a week in dock.
We met up with Captain Sarah Gallagher, in the APM-Libra, at New London. She's got a Percheron now. The crew decided to show her some of the better sights in the galaxy, since Leeds is so depressing. So we went down to Gran Canaria for a load of deuterium, and we showed her the route up.
We did, of course, pay the BAF and BPA our fee for carrying deuterium. The repairs to the Sagittarius in New Berlin didn't pass inspection at Deshima, so we remain docked there. That's just as well - I've got paperwork to complete. Sarah was going to continue her routes, I believe.

Commended duties after receiving necessary funds from the Sagittarius. He showed me the ropes, and we carried H-Fuel over to Lanzarote, then Deuterium up to Deshima via Liberty (transferring the necessary funds when we arrived), then went solo down to Cambridge with a load of Optronics. Transferred money to S/D agent Carly Denver, as she had requested funds to pick up some Reaver Mk I laser cannons for the S/D armoury.

A Zoner IFF'ed Corsair Cruiser entering comabridge and heading towards Cardief. Decided to call it a day and not make another run to be safe.

Made a trip to the Ring with a full load of Beryllium. Grabbed a load of engine parts and was just about to start my return trip when a friend of mine informed me that there was pirate activity in Omega 7 and Omega 3, so I decided to take the safe rout and stay put. Will be at the bar for the evening if you need me.
Ok made it back from Rheinland with a full haul of engine components. Headed back to Cardiff for another load of Beryllium, but their loader was broke so have to wait for them to fix it. Should be running and have me loaded by morning. Will made a full run then, of course pirate permitting.
Run started out well. Agent Starr joined me but a burst of Ion's toomk out his engine in O-3 and he had to drop off. Continued on to the Ring and dropped and picked up. One the way back in O-7 a Zoner Cruiser informed me of two Corsair Gunboats had camped along the rout from Norfolk to Cambridge and had opened fire on him. These Sairs are getting brave again. Waited for a bit then put in a call to a friend at the research station and asked him for a report. He said that the Sairs had left and were last seen headed for O-5. So luanched from Freistadt and make the quick run to Cambridge. Dropped my cargo and headed back toward Cardiff. While on the way there I saw a new Corsair gunboat picking off folks right off the trade lane. Thankfully he ignored me. I put a call out to the S/D Folks on the Comm net and docked at Cardiff for the day. Gonna let this Sair activity die down for a bit.
