Hello Alastair,
I’m French, I’m sixteen, and fond of Cunard’s liners (that’s how I found your site and love it).
I’ve just learned that QE2 is for sale again.
On my website you can sign, if you please, a petition (sorry it’s in French) to help saving her.
Thank you for your help,
Kévin

Hi Mark
QE2 guests who travel on the new Queen Elizabeth later this year will see many familiar items from the legendary QE2 – but that’s all I can say about that right now! We aren’t aware of any plans for ‘breaking up’ the ship.
Cheers Alastair

Thank you for the excellent report on QUEEN ELIZABETH’s floating out. Are you going to mention the fire on this day which destroyed RMS QUEEN ELIZABETH?

Alastair,
When QE2 was sold didn’t a lot of the on board memorabilia get sold with her? As they are now talking about her going for “breaking up” can these items be re purchased to once again sail the world on the new ships?

Thank you for another update.

I like the “QE2 Style” mast that has been added to Queen Elizabeth (3). A nice tribute to her grand predecessor!

All the best and see you soon aboard Queen Victoria.

Chris.

How indeed has the world changed – now the Meccano Principle. Soon it shall be the 23rd February, 2011 and the Quiet Australians, fresh from the return of the URN, board Q.E.
Bikkie-tin being reinforced with coins of the Realm, dinner suits to be, once again, the spirit of the evening and the LADIES, always the Pearls of Elegance.

We, from the land downunder, hope to welcome Alastair – he – the epitome of reserve and ‘dignitas’

She is absolutely beautiful! I can’t wait for tomorrow! A proper successor to both the Queen Elizabeth and QE2! Very distinguished, and elegant.
