rambo1969 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I had a great day out visiting HMS Victory, the guided tour was fantastic! The only downside was not being able to take photos once onboard. The car was down by the docks, I reckon the owner parked it there when the tide was out!!

Tony B Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 As for the second one HeHeHe! As a Yoof, I used to park my Austin ipsy on the slipway at La Haule, the slip goes down to the beach with a nice flat area of sand. Hire cars in Jersey have a specific clause in the contract that you won't take them onto the beach. A lot of Grocks (local name for tourists ) used to park on the slip and then drive onto the beach to turn, not having local knowledge they didn't know of that area of soft sand to one side. And there was ever helpful me with a tow rope offering to pull them out, for a fiver. Any arguments, well read your hire contract, its going to cost a lot more and you loose the car. In the days when £15 was good wage two or three a week over the summer was well worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rambo1969 Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 I was on the guided tour and the guide told us NO pictures to be taken once onboard, I was dissapointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie The Jeep Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I think the only place you couldn't take photos was the painting of Nelson. Everwhere else was fine. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest catweazle (Banned Member) Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 On the HMS Victory website Strange, no one stopped anyone,everyone was at it,maybe its because its still in service,dunno,does anyone.?if thats the case they would have to stop people taking pics on navy day.
