I am a fan of Admiral Nelson. He was a bad-ass able to stand in the company of Chuck Norris and Ash (but he was an actual person in actual events). God keep you, Horatio!

The Spanish had some beef with the British as well so often joined with France.

The Spanish played their part, Cape trafalgar is in Spain after all.

We should go 'invade' France and drink all their cheap north-coast wine to celebrate. If we take the ferry across we can buy bulk duty free booze/cigarettes/cosmetics as well!

Title isn't misleading, but the word Trafalgar is.

I like this idea, it seems a fitting way to remember the battle of trafalgar.

Ah right, well it was just a Naval battle and Waterloo came some time after on land.
