Thanks Bill, The Queen Mary is an international maritime treasure and deserves to be studied and respected not trashed and exploited. Great to hear that you...
Well, I hate to raise the idea, but if the operators of the Aqaurium have their act together, perhaps it could be suggested that their parent body be handed...
My thoughts.... The QM needs a very knowledgeable preservation professional on top, not a hotelier. A unified command is essential as experience has shown. If...
A point of clarification. I say that the QM needs a very strong professional preservationist on top because at its heart the QM should be a preservation...
Wouldn't building a hotel right by the QM might be a bad idea? Wouldn't that draw away potential customers from the QM hotel? Perhaps they should build an...
There are 50 acres by the QM. To attract Monday through Friday business the QM needs a large convention resort hotel on property that is phyically tied to the...
FYI, you will notice that in the video Bill Wolverton submitted, the bag pipe player is standing in front of a red sign stating "Promenade Deck", also on the...
Just wanted to let you all know, I have posted some videos of the QM2 and QV on youtube. There are only short videos of when they visited Liverpool UK on...
Nicola, I don't know if Jacki is still there - I haven't talked to her in a month or two. Normally, I would say she IS, but in these times, everyone goes from...
Nicola, by wierd coincidence I just heard from a friend who is doing some work for the ship, and they report they have just been communicating with Jacki - so...
One of the possibilities for the use of the QM Hotel if a large resort style convention hotel was built on property would be to reduce the total number of...
Thanks for responding Chris, pleased to hear that DN is doing such a great job and also glad that Jacki is still there! I realize on my last posting the link...

That looks very cool! I was aboard the QM about 2 weeks ago and had a great visit. I was able to see much more of the ship this time (My previous visit in 2003...
I think a focus on restoring the Long Gallery, Gymnasium, Children's Play room, Squash Racket court, etc. should be high priorities when/if money can be found....
I am dying to see Steve Covington's latest computer illustrations but for some reason they do not appear in your posting (on my browser) Bill. Are they also...
I was highly impressed with the First Class Lounge, but wish it would have had furniture in it like the many photos I have seen. (Although I knew it would not...
I was in the former library when I was recently aboard QM, but did not take a photo. I know the old bookcases were still there. Does anyone have a photo at an...
Brent, See the article I wrote on the first class library for the AV web site awhile back. Steve's illustrations and Sean's more recent photos are included:...
A step in the right direction.... As from August 2010 the tours ‘Seabreeze Deluxe’ and ‘De Rotterdam all nclusive’ are extended with several lounges on...

Thank you for the very important work you have done here. This part of Queen Mary's history would be lost if not for this effort. While the excellent Potter &...
I spoke with the exhibits manager of the ship today and she confirmed that the Kenneth Shoesmith folding screens is/are still in the ship's collection. They...
Are we sure that The Cymbol Player wasn't meant to represent a late night down in the Pig & Whistle? ;) kj Well kj, I haven't been down there. Has anything...
