I'm trying to get photo-proof (from an in-cabin speed display). Not too shabby for a 39 year old ship in her final year! She's still about 10 knots faster than the Queen Victoria (QV) and a few knots faster than the Queen Mary 2 (QM2) too. http://www.roblightbody.com/whats-new.htm 0071 http://www.thisishampshire.net/news/hampshirenews/display.var.2134529.0.three_queens_together_for_just_one_day.php QE2, QM2 and QV in Southampton together for 1st and last time next month 0070 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/cruises/761727/QE2-Sailing-into-the-setting-sun.html Great telegraph article about QE2's final months at sea. 0069 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/help/3681938.stm QE2 in Sydney Harbour for the last time - news video with QV 0068 http://www.roblightbody.com/liners/qe-2/news/2008/last_visit_to_nz.htm World's most famous ship makes last visit to New Zealand 0067 http://www.roblightbody.com/liners/qe-2/1969_POBI/index.htm New page added of a 1969 Booklet all about the latest Pride of Britain : QE2 0066 http://www.roblightbody.com/liners/qe-2/news/2008/qe2_qv_tandem_pics.htm Added 3 wonderful photos from John Little of QE2 battling the Atlantic, and at her second home in New York. 0065 http://www.roblightbody.com/liners/qe-2/news/2008/qe2_qv_tandem_pics.htm Awesome photos of QE2 and QV tackling a heavy sea swell in the Bay of Biscay yesterday - possibly the best photos I've ever seen of QE2 0064 http://www.cruisecritic.com/features/articles.cfm?ID=617 My God she looks so Beautiful...
