LCT7074 aka "Landfall" has now been restored and delivered to her final destination
The history of this craft
There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

And a timelapse of her transportation. Its an amazing testament to her build quality that after all this time as a submerged wreck she was still strong enough to be lifted on just two slings. I'd forgotten about the floating dock being used to transport her.

Gald it wasn;t in 'real time' but extraordinary to watch. A fair amount of mathematics used for that operation !

Was this used many moons ago as Clubship Landfall moored in Liverpool, I went to someone’s hen night on it If it same one ?
One and the same, it must have been used in Liverpool and Birkenhead because of numerous reports from both locations.

Heck , Cools . It is indeed. Clubship Landfall and she was my regular Fri or /Sat night out. I remember we had to get to it via a rickety old bridge across the Canning Dock in the dark. Many memories of that place, some good, some not so good . Ha ! Went on a blind date , wearing a short blonde wig (my hair was almost black and shoulder length) . Never having drunk whisky in my life, I spent the night on Canadian Club.. needless to say the wig dropped off at some point and the shock horror realisations , sent the blind date running. !!
Plenty of stories...of a mis-spent youth !
