submarine scheme

On Friday afternoon I get a call from Chris M:
"What are you doing at 7:30 tomorrow morning?"
"Normally I am in bed."
"How do you fancy a tour of an active sub?"
"Sure."

So I find myself getting a tour of HMAS Rankin. Submarines are cramped. Very cramped. Definitely not for the claustrophobic. The submariners I met were some of the most laid-back, calm people I have encountered. You are stuck with other people in a confined space for up to 3 months so it helps if you aren't a jerk.

Could you cope with being in a submarine with your colleagues for 3 months at a stretch?
