              Chris , Matron and the whole of the Committee are hiring a charabanc for this for this momentous occasion. I have it on good authority that she has bought a new hat .
              She will of course bring her medical bag in case of a medical emergency.

                            Just catching up with this epic build. The new scratch-built boats look terrific and the ship as a whole looks magnificent. Fabulous stuff mate, I can’t wait to see her in the water. I think you may want to try it when it’s not so cold though, it’s a tad chilly outside. Do you have a 1/72 Icebreaker ship in the stash?

                            All the best to you and Jen and carry on the incredible work. :thumb2:
