Queen Elizabeth II on her 7th and final visit to Liverpool. 3rd October 2008.

That's a great shot, John. I didn't realise that she could get into Liverpool - they must have done some dredging.

It's sad that proper ships like this have given way to top-heavy floating hotels. I don't see the attraction of them, and I know which I'd rather be on in an Atlantic storm.

A great shot to have in your collection.

Very impressive shot. The colours and framing are great.

wow, class shot! Its in belfast today, it was docking at the same time the Red Arrows were doing a small display for Bombardier Aerospace. By the time the show was over the queues for the harbour was too much for me!

Totally agree. They don't make them like they used to.

Did you get three wishes?

Brilliant shot John, without knowing about these days out they would be missed. A grand end to Days Out.

Yes indeed Gary, it was a grand day to end "Days Out"

I think my next adventure will be a cruise down the Manchester Ship Canal if I can overcome my sea-sickness. Six hours on one of them ferries is a long time.

Nice shot to add to your collection, it was over here to but never managed to get up to it, some ship.
