aha..

a new coat of paint and a new flag on our old "War Canoe" ,HMAS Melbourne, and they're in business.

She was sold as scrap but still exists and is used by the Chinese to study aircraft carrier methods etc. Ancient as she may be it still looks and works like more modern machinery.

We sold scrap iron to the Japs just before WW2!.

This time no bullets and bombs, just lots of yuan!!!!

###targets for a Collins class sub,,,,,oh dear, someone is reading the press releases. Five Collins out of six have been sunk by the RAN and the dockyards...
