Subject: "quarter-deck" up and down the room gen. Пожалуйста, помогите перевести: doing a quiet steady "quarter-deck" up and down the room. Выражение встречается в следующем контексте: Owen Young was seated in his armchair puffing away at his pipe, his legs outstretched, his keen eyes fixed unswervingly on me. As is my habit when propounding such arguments I was doing a quiet steady "quarter-deck" up and down the room. When I had finished there was a brief pause. Заранее спасибо
