Away out later to watch the Royal Navy new air craft carrier Queen Elizabeth go under the Forth bridges ,have to wait for low tide may be around about midnight
low tides at 23.00 at Rosyth ,even her indoors wants to see her so off we jolly well go ,hopefully she'l still be in the Forth when its light in the morning for a better look
Young at heart - slightly older in other places 😉 cheers Doug Grant me the Serenity to accept things I can't change, the Courage to change things that I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference!
Couldn't believe how big it is(ooh Mrs ) she is magnificent looked good from the bridge when she was being built far more impressive floating didn't appear to miss the bridge by much
I'm right jealous 😆 But I have to admit I did have the pleasure of visiting the BAE Govan yard (formerly Yarrow Shipbuilding!) a few times while HMS Daring - T45 #1 was under construction 👍😊 Mighty impressive was the module construction hall with a module being fitted out - it was 'massive' and weird to see all the insides outside so to speak! 😲 Even more impressive was the next visit when she had been launched and moved across the river to the final fitting out dock. Just round the corner from her were 3 FACs for which our company had supplied the Comms systems. Visits like that are what I miss most since I retired 🤔 Doug 😎
