There are talking about pilfering.
The QE2 came down to the Inchgreen Drydock, t get her launch poppets removed and her bum scraped and painted.
A few months after she sailed, there was court case in Greenock, the man was accused and found guilty of stealing a complete set of cabin furniture from the QE2.
Regards
Vic

Keith, The clocks aboard her where clearly marked with a warning, Markings to indicate attempts to remove them had failed, that all the spares had been used up and they are actually wired in which makes removing then dangerous. Terry.

So they rang the bell the arch Angel appeared and told them Jesus was checking there life,s C.V Before they could enter or have to take the lift downwards, R.A. We have have been on the booze all day we need to spend a penny where desperate. Wait hear said the Angel i shall go and ask Jesus the decision is his alone. He goes and explains to Jesus, GO BACK and tell them Scousers i will make my decision in my own time..............2 minutes later the Angel runs back to Jesus LORD !!!!!!!!!!!!!! LORD !!!!!!!!!!!! They have vanished!!!!!!!!!!!! Dont be an idiot he said how can 12 Scousers dissapear with know where to go................ Not the Scousers Lord The pearly gates
