  Here we are...just literally seconds ago...took some spelling that did.
  
  

  

  
  
  Information to follow.... yes here we are..
  
  On this day, the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra from Katowice will be travelling by sea on Polish training ship, the 'Dar Młodzieży' into the Port of Dover as part of a series of cultural events in European ports to recognise 200 years since the birth of Chopin. The Dar Młodzieży ship will be at Terminal 2 (Western Docks) in Dover and will welcome visitors during the day. This voyage is part of a tour of European ports, Copenhagen, Gothenburg, Oslo, Dover and Boulogne-sur-Mer, following the voyage undertaken by Chopin almost two centuries ago.
  
  
  During the prestigious evening event, the Polish National Symphony Orchestra of Katowice will be conducted by Jacek Kasprzyk, an international conductor who has toured with many of the most acclaimed British Orchestras including the Royal Philharmonic, as well as conducted major operas around the world including La Scala in Milan.
  
  
  The 'DFDS Seaways Under the Flag of Chopin' event will start at 7.00pm, doors open at the town hall from 6.30pm. It will be an evening of breathtaking music performed by the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra - the most renowned orchestra in Poland

  I must say it was a magnificent sight as I drove down Jubilee Way this morning, all three ships on the Admiralty Pier. Great stuff.

  An early bus to Deal this morning, followed by a walk back along the cliff`s to Dover brought the surprising spectacle of these fine vessel`s in port, but I see above they were already spotted. Unfortunatly, despite some sunshine up the cliff`s, it had turned somewhat gloomy once down to the Prince of Wales pier. Look forward to on board picture`s on here later from DavidH.

  I thought I had seen that ship somewhere before.
  I took a snap of it after berthing in the Granville dock in the mid 80s when I worked at the Ferry dock.
  
  

  

  
  
  When it came into port all of the crew manned the masts but I suppose wiv elf and safety these days.

  The funny thing is that on my way home from the LRCF I was stopped by 2 Polish sailors in full uniform asking if I would like to buy cigarrettes.
  They had bag fulls of the damn things.
