Meteor mark 4B Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Agreed, stunning pics. HMS Albion is now our flagship, a pity it will probably be "parked up" most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M5Clive Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 A bloody sad day. Thanks for taking the trouble to post the pics. Those poor guys stood on deck must have been flipping freezing. Your pictures remind me of the day I stood in a similiar spot in 1982 (aged 7) and watched HMS Hermes come home from the Falklands Conflict. That was an emotional day too. Pity the pictures are on slides otherwise I would have posted a couple to compliment yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike65 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Well she is still sitting down there at Portsmouth. They shouls open her up to the public and make a few quid before it is gone. I would quite happily pay to have a lookm around. Mike PS: Apologies not the best picture but only had the little camera and it was getting dark.
