    ****ing great to see a brand new ship sliding down the slipway into the Mersey again. A serious state-of-the-art one as well. It's been way too long.

    My Dad did his electrical apprenticeship at Cammell Laird <ok> Hope it's a sign of things to come.

    It floats so he did his job well.:emoticon-0105-wink:

    On a serious note, it's a magnificent vessel and will look the part when it's fitted out and painted up.

    My Dad once got there 2 minutes late and the gates were locked. He was docked half a days' pay <laugh>

    Won't be state of the art until it's fitted out, as of now is just an empty hull in dry dock.:emoticon-0105-wink:
