    Hi Brian,
    If you cant make it to Liverpool to see the Queen Mary 2, on Tuesday here are a few photos of her on the maiden voyage in 2004.
    I was looking forward to going but I am not allowed to drive until I am cleared by the surgeon on 18 November due to the Op on my shoulder.
    She will be a magnificent sight along side the Stage.
    She is the biggest Liner in the world. in length, width and height. some cruise ships like the `Wotsit of The Seas` have a larger gross tonnage.
    The photo from the wing of the bridge shows four blades of the Pods, on the fore deck, an American passenger said to me,"Hey, these are magnificent sculptures" I had to tell him they were spare prop blades. he was not amused.
    Photos of the Restaraunts, the Spa pool.
    One of QM2 and QE2 in New York from the Empire State Building.
    A picture of one of four Propulsion Pods, Shirley Bassey on stage in the theatre, views of the bridge or wheelhouse. 147 feet wide, and me with Commodore Ron Warwick now retired.
    Forget the kids inheritence, book a voyage on her.
