British Prime Minister drops in on Halifax to address sailors on HMS
Ark
Royal..... Britain's Naval flagship.
Next week it's the Queen.

Exciting week for anyone interested in naval affairs.



BTW.. it isn't all play....... the fleets conducted naval exercises
before
coming here to help us celebrate.
We also get to check out a couple of supply ships that we may be
interested
in. USS Fort George is one example and an interesting ship from Denmark.
Ours are approaching 50 years old.

Just don't buy any more subs from Mother England. Freaking Lucas
electrics suck.

We learned our lesson with those lemons.
