#19, John as you know immorality has been here since time began and each century has brought forth same old. My parents protected me and I did likewise and my grandchildren the same. Such pleasure to be gained by their innocence and wonder in all things new. That's all any decent family can do. How did we get from Britannia to this....

Cannot believe the world that seems droned and cloned.

#13, Funny old world, isn't it John

Bit of a bummer really AND

did you know that a contingent of Royal Marines were aboard when the Royal family is aboard, think I read it somewhere oh yes #12 and #15

What it was actually like working on the Royal Yacht.

Sixty years after her launch crew say the Royal Yacht Britannia did not waive the rules for anyone - Daily Record

FOURO.

On these two pics are - Royal Marine Band ( no non-Band were on board) on the menu. Working up in the bridge area I used to enjoy hearing the practice up in the foc'sle en route to Mombasa from Southampton. and - The flag on the mainmast was the flag of Vice Admiral Lambe signifying he was aboard. The Shaw Savill House Flag (I think it is) on the bow was at half mast for King George VI.
