Hi Martin

I saw that. I was at the end of Hythe pier when she left.....almost alone. There were not many people around on that side of the water. I had only just moved down to that part of the world, but had holidayed there some years earlier when my interest in ships had been aroused.

Evening Allan.
Glad you liked the picture.I put a shot of the Queen Elizabeth leaving for her last voyage on today.
We must have been very near each other we took those great nostalgic shots of her departure. Regards, Martin Davis(Holly).

Fantastic shot, never saw anything like this when I popped in at Wisbech in the 70's
