Welcome because this week the Bilgepumps Crew think they have escaped reality... as they grapple with the news of the Type 32...  Britain's increasing its defence spending... and most importantly the Bilgepumps Curse.

So without much further ado, this Bilgepumps, Episode 25, - good Jamie is back, bad news our guest couldn't make it... good news thanks to Boris Johnson's latest announcements and recent events we had plenty still to discuss... So sit back, relax, enjoy as poor Jamie does  the work that should actually earn him a paycheck and tries to keep Alex & Drach from disappearing down all sorts of random rabbit holes.

In the past Alex has said, once it reached Episode 25... he could no longer claim "#Bilgepumps is still a newish series and new avenue"... The crew are actually starting to get the hang of it, although they need to work on their endings... so no if it can't claim to be new... Well we can still hope you enjoy the easy listening relaxed atmosphere as our three normal crew attempt to make sense of the world around them. Whilst imbibing a lot of Irn Bru and catering to the needs of some rather large fluffy research assistants who seem to only want us for our beds.

Thank you to our audience for staying with us, for those who  it's a first listen, we hope you enjoy and return. As always we’d very much like any comments, topic suggestions or ideas for artwork to be tweeted to us as we are always eager to hear them.... to find us the #Bilgepump crew (with #Bilgepumps), at Alex (@AC_NavalHistory), Drach (@Drachinifel), and Jamie (@Armouredcarrier). Or you can comment on our Youtube channels (listed down below).
