I think my invite has been lost in the post!  :(  But never mind, I will still toast QE2's success by having a glass of champagne on the 27 October.   :)
I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

  • QE2 started a dream to go to sea - now a reality!

Will probably be for the media, social media "influencers", the famous, the high flying, royalty etc etc who are local to Dubai but otherwise have little to no connection to QE2 based on what we've seen with some of the past events. To me, if the above is so, it just reinforces that QE2 now is not the QE2 we used to know - for better or worse.
First sailed on QE2 in August 2003 aged 6 years old. Last sailed on QE2 in July 2008. Last saw the seagoing QE2 in person from the decks of QM2, on QE2's last Transatlantic crossing (Eastbound tandem) in October 2008. Visited QE2 in her new life, in Dubai, in January 2020 and August 2022.

The same date as the big refit in 87....
From the moment you first glimpsed the Queen,
 you just knew you were in for a very special time ahead.!
