Trying again.

I saw it the first time when I saved it;-)
"If history nothing means for the present what does the present mean for the
future"
I often use that for people with no interest in history;-)

Another old photo

It is described as "Titanic in dry-dock in Belfast on Feb. 3, 1912. The
propellors are being fitted and a final coat of paint applied"

Its relationship to the old barge picture is that the designer of Titanic
and managing director of Harland and Wolff, Thomas Andrews, who sailed on
the vessel and was lost in its sinking was married to a member of the
Barbour family.

Regards,

Tuppence

Thanks Tuppence, a nice picture and we all know how it ended.
Goïng back in time can be crual.
