England will be sending an expedition north to investigate rumors of Russian battle ships in Norwegian harbors. Lines of communication are unreliable and borders sometimes unclear. The Russian fleet may have mistaken Oslo for Gothenburg. As there has not been any serious damage to English interests we will not rush to war. But should we find any Russians when we arrive, the snows of St. Petersburg will be ash by 1905.

Mistaking Oslo for Gothenburg. Fog in the Skagerrak. Yeah, that’s the ticket. It was an error in navigation.
I hope I don’t mistake Copenhagen for Malmo on the way back. Or Shetland for Jutland.
