HMS Victory 30/12/2007

Whilst staying at Phils parents in Sussex, we trudnled off to Portsmouth on 30th December to go and see HMS Victory.

The only way to see Victory is by a guided tour. We did wonder if the kids would find it not to their taste, but they seemed to enjoy it and were very well behaved. A small group of lads (13 year olds) got told off by the tour guide for chatting, which I found amusing!

Did you know the Carpenter on the Victory was over 6 foot? He must have spent his life with severa back ache!

We had a good nose around the HMS Warrier


We then went to see the Mary Rose which was viewed with an audio headset thing, which even Sam and Beth listed to from start to finish.

Pictures to follow:
