Photo was taken prior to her service in the Falklands. Clive you are correct she returned to service after the war.

person

I think franks is confused with the poor old UGANDA!

person

Franks, I think you must be mistaken. Canberra was not placed in lay-up and left to rust away after the Falklands war. She was given a refit and was returned to cruise service again. As such she enjoyed huge popularity until she was eventually withdrawn from service in 1997.

person

I see her laided up after falklands just rusting away until she went to scrap very sad end for grand lady

person

Yes, I agree, she was probably my most viewed passenger vessel ever, I saw her every where over the years, many times...You always new when we saw her with her unique design etc. she stood out from the all the rest.

person

Hi Gordy,Mr.Dot,Denis....yes indeed, the old girl still turns our heads eh?....nothing since has that class really. She was unique....
Cheers.
(Nice shot too by Paul Wille)
