We are at Tilbury Fort, Essex, where Sir Leicester put
more than 4,000 braves to face a possible landing: in the
previous days the fate (and the weather) have fought for
them. It would be now a good thing if the Spanish would
not attempt a landing. It’s anyway time to stop in this land
the fanatics of fox hunting, and place some more guns to
protect this stretch of coast: fortunately there is now a
radar to watch the situation during the night! Here on the
right they are quickly making the mattresses for the
sailors, using a modern rotary plant for moulding large
blocks of flexible foam. To attack the heavy galleons it is
better to use fast row boats, which are thermoformed with
plastic, and are almost unsinkable. Hey, it’s all local
production, you know? Not imported technology, it’s all
made here: it’s the start of the English industry, they say;
God knows where they will arrive, with this! The owner
of The Red Lion pub is worried: all this activity kept his
patrons away, the beer stays in the kegs! Here below, on
the castle’s top, the guards are fixing their lunch,
roasting a pork on the spit: ah, the delicacies of the English cooks!
