Good to see the Clydebank Post picking up on the Hotel QE2 Story. I had sent them the link with Rob's quote.  People in Clydebank were and still are very proud of the magnificent ship they built!
I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

The National has a good piece today, and I'm delighted that for once a major newspaper has quoted me accurately.

This is a journalist that gets information from me then does not even bother to credit me

That's a shame.  Do you mean this time, or previous times?

That must be so annoying, l appreciate what your doing (you may not believe it !!!) and what you do isnt easy, but at least they should give you due credit.
From the moment you first glimpsed the Queen,
 you just knew you were in for a very special time ahead.!

The journalist in question has contacted us to dispute your claim.
