Ooooh, you cannot reach me now
Ooooh, no matter how you try
Goodbye, sport diving, it's over
Walk on by.



Sitting in a sub here behind my mask
Waiting for the patrol to come.
In perfect isolation here behind my mask
Waiting for the patrol to come.



We're {waiting to succeed} and going to convene outside Plymouth
Town Hall where we're going to be...



Waiting to cut out the deadwood.
Waiting to clean up the beach.
Waiting to follow the sea patrol.
Waiting to put on a scuba suit.
Waiting to weed out the divers.
Waiting to smash in their boats
And kick in their tanks.
Waiting for the final solution
For total dive safety.
Waiting to follow the sea patrol.
Waiting to turn on the showers
And fire the boats.
Waiting for the recs and the sports
and poachers and fishers
Waiting to follow the sea patrol!



Would you like to see Britannia
Rule again, my friend?
All you have to do is follow the sea patrol.
Would you like to send unsafe divers
Home again, my friend?



All you need to do is follow the sea patrol.



The Sea Patrol will convene outside Seaton. We'll be moving along at about 12 o'clock down the beach {.... ......}




... twelve minutes to three we'll be moving along Sidmouth towards Exeter.

SEA PATROL! SEA PATROL! SEA PATROL!



Now when we get to the other side of Exeter we're in Exmouth area.

SEA PATROL! SEA PATROL! SEA PATROL!



It's quite possible we may encounter some {.....} by the way we go. {... ..}."

Sea Patrol is not above summarily executing unlicensed lobster divers in distress, they are filth and deserve no less.

I wonder if Sea Patrol is at risk of any infighting and civil strife due to Enjoyment

I mean, they all seem to be very good at their jobs, and all it would take would be one or two factions to start to enjoy taking the Walking Submarine out for a spin/ start playing with the tractor and all of a sudden the job has become Recreation...

SEA PATROL seems to operate outside of the government, but someone's gotta kill all those horrible unauthorized divers, shellfish poachers, and the people who support such criminals...and that somebody is Anthony Appleyard.

Professor Shark, don't worry about a thing. SEA PATROL is up to the task of maintaining peace at any cost.

He seems to be against the sort of draconian law enforcement Sea Patrol represents, but on the other hand, he does write an awful lot about draconian law enforcement ...

http://larashots.com/appleyard/seapatrol/index.htm

quote:

A possible near future or "alternate time line". All diving and boat use has been put under a tight naval / industrial control. Enforcing this is one of the duties of the inshore branches of the Sea Patrol. If you don't want this sort of thing to become reality, watch out for authoritarianism and officialdom creeping up on your favourite hobby.

Ok, sounds pretty simple to play, probably just a 2D point and click affair.



Ah. Thats an awful lot of controls for a basic DOS game.



Oh gently caress me it just keeps going on and on, loving autism has gotten into the instructions.



WHY ARE THERE SO MANY CONTROLS GOD



Still keeps going!



I've picked out a sensible name for the type of person who would run patrols such as this.



Wow, all those controls and this is quite literally the game in its entirety. To truly appreciate the majesty of this title you really need to see it in motion.



Now that I've completed the one and only level in this game, lets see how well I did.

God bless you internet.

I wonder if there were weirdos like this pre internet, and in some musty attic somewhere is an old trunk filled with like pages and pages of HORSE PATROL fiction and illustrations.

"The filthy serf knew full well the king had passed new anti recreational horseback riding laws only days before, but thought he could get away with it! He wasn't expecting... HORSE PATROL!

We dragged the shiftless miscreant from the his saddle, and beat him soundly. We then burned his horse in front of him, forcing him to smell the burning horse while he wept pitifully!

*the pages are oddly discoloured near this paragraph*

Our duties done, HORSE PATROL mounted up and rode off to crush all the other worthless peasants who would dare to use horses for anything but strict work related duties!"

Hey I'm pretty good at this poo poo!

As we processed the results of these arrests, it got dark. A man in a backstreet-workshop-made amphibious power armour prowled around our base's quay, planning to be the sport divers' new defender against us. But such superhero-type methods tend not to work for long in the real world, and soon a night guard routinely disposed of him .
