Anna, I think I still have my ship spotter book, “Ships of the Solent” C1959 if you would like to hone up your skills on specific marks of ship, though I don’t recall there being any container ships in my edition… :rolleyes:

Anna, I know you had a new camera, however, what camera did you use and lense?,
Where were you, were you on a boat or on the land?

Bikinis and beaches are rather rare in Southampton. 😉

Bournemouth is ~25 miles away from Southampton and has a beach, so perhaps redirect her to there?

Actually, there is an aviation connection – in six containers aboard one of those vessels are the remains of THAT four-engined bomber from China. They are being transferred onto another ship, heading towards Venezuela where they will reassembled in a ten week rebuild to flying condition.
I’ve sent a money order for $10,000 to Fernandez in Puerto Rico – he’s arranged every step of this transaction, and assures me that something will be flying before the end of the year.
