Hi Peter -

Let's ask again if someone in the UK would like to have a go at QE2 Evening at Sea refit before she starts another transatlantic crossing.  Pete will be interested in a few weeks, I believe. 

Where shall QE2 head for her next refit ?

June  :D

I'm very much hoping to tackle this really difficult jigsaw as well.

However... to be realistic... it would have to be over the Christmas break or at some other time when I get a decent period of time at home.

Good news though! I am about to get stuck into the "Liverpool Calling" jigsaw again and hope to post pictures of progress over the next few days.

I cannot take on the jigsaw at the moment but would be willing to have a try in the New Year. 
I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

Hi Isabelle - Great news that QE2 Jigsaw Liverpool Calling will soon continue her refit.

Hi Rob - I think that is a marvelous idea to ask Ian and Sue McNaught to do the puzzle.  Will you ask them perhaps ?

Hi Lynda - I am sure after the New Year would be fine.

Revised list -

Peter M.
Ian and Sue M. ?
Pete C.
Isabelle P.
Alan S.
Jim B. ?
John ?
Catherine ?
Lynda B.
June
Rod ?

I like the idea of a former QE2 Captain assembling this jigsaw; will he take on the challenge, I wonder?

Could there be any potential publicity angle in this? Might make a nice photo in the press.

Yes, Bruce, it would indeed make a nice photo in the press and for our puzzle page.

Ok - so am I to hold fire on making any despatch arrangements until someone has had an answer from Captain McN about this?

If he's in the UK and wants to try it, I'll deliver it in person even if it's more than 2 hours from London -there would be a huge PR aspect for the forum of the artist handing over the jigsaw to a high profile former QE2 Captain to do wouldn't there?
