Found my African Queen pictures. These are from 2008. Sadly, she was quite a mess on the inside.

Re: films
Sad about that,
I was told many years ago she was one of the little ships that went to Dunkirk in WW2 to rescue the troops off the beach.
I think we should get a work gang off here and going and get her back into shipshape. Anyone coming???
Cheers
Brian.

Excellent idea, Brian. I was hesitant to post the rest of the pics I have, but maybe they'll be more motivating...

Saddened me to see her in this condition. The owner should be drawn and quartered!

It would appear to me Brian that these Queens get just about everywhere, just hope it is not catching.
