Birthday Boy

Had a great day out at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, having a look at  HMS Victory and the remains of HMS Mary Rose and all the associated collection of salvaged history.

Lots of other things to see including a Galipoli warship that was built in 7 weeks - exactly 100, years old and a fascinating reminder of changes in shipbuilding within the time.

There's a good write up of the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard on the Guardian just a few days ago it turns out.
