I'd heard tomorrow as well for the announcement of the rebirth of British Shipbulders (WD). I have heard that the MG BC got through the DMB last week, which would make a nice juicy contract award to set the company off with.

Noting also that VT are throwing stuff through their sheds at the minute to clear room for the Omani boats and then (hopefully) QEII. T45 bow six is now in fabrication, so they're not mucking about. On teh otehr hand, I heard a nasty little rumour that one of Darings electric motors had a serious mishap during set-to-work last week. The sort of serious mishap that might lead to a replacement...........not good for T45 programme or CVF.
