Cheers Wench, the last time i seen the Liverpool was at the 50th anniversary, battle of the Atlantic celebrations, previous to that, working on her and going on sea trials, Jimbob also worked on her, its a wonder it still floats.
God help us, Come yourself, Don't send Jesus, This is no place for children.
Thanks for that Bert I knew she was a local lass but it's always nice to know we have members of Wiki who have worked on the Naval ships that visit, whether it be the building or serving as crew. I'm looking forward to going aboard her
A tv series of HMS Manchester's final deployment starts on Five at 9pm on 7th Feb. There's only 5 episodes but it makes for good viewing.
It'll be an honour to go aboard but it will also be sad to see her decommissioned
