I can only assume that 'Ambrose' is meant to be 'ARBROATH' (Fleet Air Arm base). Initially amusing but now a bit irksome.
Also I accept the limitations of scale but perhaps Scapa Flow could actually be relocated to ORKNEY ISLANDS.

Hi Logier

Ambrose is HMS Ambrose, the submarine base at Dundee: http://www.dundee-at-war.net/ambrose.htm

Well how about that - I've learned something very useful. I didn't know, despite being brought up in Fife.
Mind you, 'Condor' would still sound better [:)]
