    That’s fantastic, well done to all those involved. Lovely to see a project like this succeed. Things like this really need to be preserved to help tell the story.

    I’ll definitely be making a trip down to Pompey to see that when it’s ready.

    She will also have a couple of tanks embarked when she’s open, a Churchill Crocodile and a Sherman (I think it might actually be a Grizzly), the two that were originally outside the D Day Story museum

    Good old “Clubship Landfall”! They done a fantastic job getting her back to her original trim.

    So the museum is in Southsea?  I’ve not been back there since shortly after I was born.  In the Royal Naval Maternity Home of all places!
