Another battleship anchored outside of work today. HMS Ark Royal visiting Liverpool
It was supposed to be here in September, however the Royal Navy was too afraid to dock at the new landing stage until it had passed a safety check!
It's no wonder that we don't "Rule the Waves" anymore...

HMS Bulwark
HMS Bulwark has been moored outside of the office for the past two days.
Apparently it's an anti-terrorism, anti-piracy amphibious assault warship. Better not fly the Jolly Roger from the office window then... :)
I've seen a few sailors and marines getting on and off, going into town and back. (No they're not singing "Shore Leave!" and tap dancing).
No sign of any helicopters using the flight deck.
