Lots of Other Forum News
Forum Tip - Create an "Avatar" Rob produced easy instructions on how to create an Avatar that helps you recognise who is who on the forum and can be seen beside posts.
In the rest of the forum, here are some of the current stories: A Word for QE2 where June asked "if you were asked by a reporter for a single word or phrase to describe QE2 what would you say?" Interesting discussions on the Britannia figurehead designed by Charles Moore. Bryce gave us a lovely insight into Joining QE2 in 1968 Ann asked if members could give information on the October 1979 Storm and members obliged by sharing their knowledge.
