QE 2 To leave Southampton

Wow, good thing she wasn't damaged too much... When I was 17 years old and first became a travel agent, I sent a couple on the QE2 for one of my first cruise bookings.... I was in shock at the cost of it, even back then!! Kinda sad this is her last voyage though

wow

As it says somewhere on that, it's an english ship yet its leaves here like every other historic thing, i know we have alot of history in southampton but this should be added to that

Mum just saw on the news divers are going to check the ship is safe to sail tonight

Update: the all clear has been given that it is safe to sail

I saw it leave!! Sent off in style with two fireworks displays. Was amazing!

Where are you from then?

I was really sad to see her leave Greenock. In a perfect world she should now be at home in Glasgow where she was built all those years ago. Bloody money and polititians managed to scupper that one.

I also resent the former Royal Yacht being in Edinburgh. She doesn't belong there, she belongs back on the Clyde where she was built.
