First thing my grandkids said when they saw the Grand Princess was "Wow a ship with a spoiler"
I beleive the "spoiler" is actually a reasturant!
Proud Scouser, with a dabbling of Welsh and Irish.
bore yourself silly at my Flickr page...anorak central!
That is a huge ship and I am dissappointed that I missed it but am going to try and get to see it next time it is in Liverpool.
There are some really great pics here !!!

Spot onShe really is a cracking ship. I think i will go over the water when she comes back.
I heard the Qe2 is coming on 3rd October, anyone know if this is true, it will be the last chance to see her as its her farewell tour.
Thanks.
I whittled it down to about a dozen.
The tugs were alongside like this for about an hour.
7.15, and she's moving.
Starting to turn round.
Unfortunately, it was raining by now.

Great pics Philip. They get appreciated on here.
I believe you met my brother and nephew down at the terminal. You'll know who I mean if I say the latter is an 'old man' for his tender years.![]()
It's lovely how friendly people are on occasions like this.
I'll need another clue, Ged.
