HMS Royal Oak. 833 men went down with her and rest there still. RIP.
I've vistited Scapa Flow to see her, or should i say the buoy marking where she lays. Indeed, very sad. They reckon you can see her shape quite clearly from the air at low tide.....

Welcome to The Club Cleopatra1, and to the thread that never dies!
John (Vice Chairman) was telling me he thinks your garages are based near Southwark tube? Said he saw one in a yard there.....
How many Ducks do you actually have in the fleet? I would have thought maintanance was a nightmare. What stuff have you had to replace, and what is the most annoying and reoccuring problem with them?
There'll be more questions to come.........

What a great post!! I used to love making models as a teenager (absolute rubbish but i enjoyed it!). I simply don't have the time nowadays. I spotted a model Stug IV the other day and was seriously tempted....
It's very easy to simpy build a model, paint it etc, but it's the small 'added' details that make a good model count....

Shame they can't be re-introduced!!

Cheers for that David. I can only feel for the poor sods who had to fight in those things.
I heard that more British WWI tankers were killed by the poison from their own engines than by the enemy. I see no reason to doubt it......
