Good day gentlemen,
A good first patrol by all means! First, I met a few darling chaps. A good mercenary in a Ageira ship, and a fine trader heading off to Kensingon Shipping Platform. Good chaps who seemed willing to chat, but I got reports of a Gaian in Leeds, so I had to be off.
He was nice enough, only he seemed a bit bitter about the way Leeds was looking. I argued with him for quite a bit about the corporations of Bretonia, and the way that Bretonia was going, and the proper way to voice an argument. Sadly, he wasn't persuaded for a long while. He continued to argue, and during the argument, I even found a Deutretium smuggler!
I then went back to dealing with the Gaian, with whom I came into agreement with by going to Shetland to investigate any legitimate claims he may have had:
I didn't find anything that may be off the records, but I have filed a request to remain on Aberdeen to follow through. Simply a few scheduled shuttles heading to the few vistas that Gaia has been allowed was what I saw, and there is nothing out of the ordinary in Shetland records. Despite this, though, the Gaian was still quite courteous, and he returned our pilots at my request, and even gave us a pair of Mollies that he caught:
Good to get some respect sometimes, and I can see that this just might be the way. Regretfully, I can't meet you chaps at Christy's tonight, but maybe a week from now, I can get a leg in. Hope that'll be alright...

Subject: The GMG
Good evening, gentlemen,
This evening is a rather climactic conclusion to the rest of my day. I found a GMG in Newcastle, strangely enough. I have to say, they wanted some odd things, such as a right of passage, and cooperated fully. This is exactly what happened:
In short, I escorted him out after he dropped his H-Fuel at Gateshed. He was quite cooperative, surprisingly. Seemed sincere and such, but he wasn't very punctual, leading me to believe that he was previously carrying something unsavory...
A good end to the day, I think,

Greetings
Today for me is just all bad news. First I lose my Book of Laws of Bretionia. After some futile looking for it I decedied to Launch and patrol around Leeds. Withing seconds of Launch I got a private message from and ship claiming to was corsair and that he would leave peacefully. Well that sounded good and I was about to reply when two Gaians arrived. I asked them to leave and withing seconds my controls scream at me as they fired a salvo of missiles at me. I mange to avoid them and fled for cover. The second salvo fired was joined by weapon which brought down my shields. The third salvo hit my ship but luckly I was picked up by a passing bowex ship.
The offenders were [NLH]Ketigeana and [NLH]Greenback.Reserve
Ketigeana was flying a Kusari Gunboat and Greenback looked to be the same.

Got myself kitted out in a Hussar and picked up an ID after much to-ing and fro-ing. Received a distress call from a trader "Badlands" in Leeds, but could not assist due to not having ID at that point.
As I was finishing up a mission in the Southampton Debris Field, one of those SCRA blokes announced his presence over the comm channel. Gave him a smashing display of my rapier wit (my only weapon) and he backed down. Huzzah!
TO: Bretonian Police Authority
FROM: Peter Barrington, IMG
SUBJECT: Trading Permit
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to request permission on behalf of all Guild trade vessels to carry deuterium. Our typical routes would be from Gran Canaria in Omega 49 to either our South Shields facility in Newcastle, or to Rheinland (if we do not take the route through the Omega-50s).
At no time would any IMG vessel carrying deuterium go into the Taus, or take such cargo anywhere into Kusari space. Any Guild member found to have done so would be dealt with severely.
Please inform me of your decision via PM, as I do not monitor this comm system.
Thank you,

To Whom It May Concern:
Thank you for your recent approval of our permit to carry deuterium through Bretonian space.
I neglected in my last request to ask also for permission to carry h-fuel. Several routes are feasible, which I can update you on in the future, perhaps the most prominent being from our South Shields Refinery in Newcastle to Lanzarote Base in Omega 49.
Of course, we would abide by our commitments stated in my previous request: no h-fuel taken into the Taus or traded in any way with Kusari.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours,

At last, some action!
Today above New London I detected a Molly ship, after a rather unkind exchange of words he showed up at the planet. His Barghest was of course no match for my nimble Hussar, although he hit me with a supernova once due to my carelessness. Once his hull was down to 50% with no bots he dove into New London.
A glorious day for the queen's forces!

To Whom It May Concern:
I understand your superintendent is no longer in office. He approved our transport of deuterium via private communique, but my h-fuel request was unfortunately made after his resignation.
I am wondering if someone in authority can please get back to us in short order, as h-fuel helps complete an important run for us (transporting from South Shields/Newcastle to the Zoners' Lanzarote Base in Omega 49).
Please PM me at your earliest opportunity.
Thanks very much,

The delay in appointing a new commissioner is but a trfile, and it is business as usual here at the Yard. The CCD will discuss this matter with the Admiralty and a determination will be reached at that point. Please be patient in the meantime.

The CCD has examined your application. Under present circumstances, we must regretfully refuse your application to transport H-fuel outside Bretonian space.
