  Yes I saw it Ron. It came in relatively fairlyish close too. A real beauty.
  
  I didnt get a picture this time as it was a tad dark...but lovely to see it. One of these days it might come in here. If I can find the previous picture will put it up. Diana and Ray tipped me off at the time that it was passing

  I think to get it into Dover would need a little more dredging, and perhaps even removing the end of the PoW pier?

  Ah yes...it looks very very large even from a long way out. It retains that classic look doesnt it. Harks back to those heady days when stars were stars and Liners were..ermmm Liners!

  Exactly Paul, , it looks like a proper ship not a floating box.
