Only saw this thread for the first time today, so here are some pics.

October 5th 2008, the day the QE2 made last visit to the Clyde and a day before a big military exercise started around Scotland.

First, here's the QE2 making her way to Greenock for the last time...

... and a shot of the funnel and a lifeboat as the ship sat in the Ocean Terminal...

Now for some of the the other big fellows that were hanging around for the start of the exercise...

Ark Royal
