Fiddleman, where were those construction photos taken?

Agreed Mr.B., that would have been a fun job.

Reading from the book page 16 they talk about South Bristol, the
Gamage shipyard.
" I says Appledor did it properly, With grease smoking, she slid down
the ways into the welcoming arm of the Atlantic Ocean. We set
departure date of November 9, 1978 to begin our voyage around the world. The dream was about to
become a reality."

This was not in the book. I added it but should not have placed it in
with the text. I hope it doesn't cause problems.
