Trafalgar 200 ..
Our..and the Queens; review of the Fleet at Portsmouth [ The Solent ] on 28 June 2005.. There were around 167 ships anchored in the Solent, which included about 57 British Warships..
In the October of 2004 we pre-booked a ride for the 28 June 2005 on an I-O W ferry, We had an amazing day out..
HM Queen was on board HMS Endurance and we actually followed her out of Portsmouth Harbour into the Solent... We had to skirt the fleet on the outward voyage, but, came straight through the centre on the return..
The video format used was the old Hi-8 taken on an old Sony which I had to hold above my head for about an hour to clear the crowd in front of me...
My video quality does not do the day the justice it deserves..

You are not an Empire; it is painful to support this so stupid and ancient idea.
