    Hi Andy,
    You got there before me. There is something quite profund reading that years after the event - little did the author know about what was to happen.

    Hi Hugh and Andy,

    Another couple of images I found on a well stocked Things Navy site,
    Oldships.org.uk.
    Well worth a visit.

    Cheers

    PS Not sure if I like the painting, but I know Annie will.
