Out and about Sunday!

out and about in Portsmouth and the Solent today...sun's disappeared again!! We missed the fleet review...having time off from the business over the next 2/3 weeks and sadly couldn't justify the time!! Is the ship pictured on its own the one which stood in for The Victory in the mock "Blues v. Reds" battle...just curious! "Blues v. Reds"...political correctness gone mad..!

No i don't think it is the one.I believe it was the 'Grand Turk' of Hornblower fame that played the part of Victory ,but i may be wrong.
