Do you know where your father is presently?” “Yes miss, his sub is at the Portsmouth Naval yard for repair.” “I see, do you recall the discussion we had prior to your mothers departure? Never mind I’m sure you do. Shannon, will you please explain to Marcy why some areas, especially the pub, are out of bounds for pupils?” “Yes ma’am. It is for our safety, there have been incidents in the past at the pub and the Navy doesn’t like these. Our pupils are guests of the Navy, and we have to follow the rules.” “Very good Shannon. Did anything untoward happen at the pub?” “No ma’am,” Shannon replied, “We had our lunch, no beer, and left. Mrs Hunt-Jones spoke to us after classes ended and gave me the note.” Mrs McCallum made some notes in Marcy’s file, taking her time.
