Subject: RE: Req: The Caledonia (about a ship with that name)
May not be relevant, but I thought some of you might find this of interest, recalling the days of 'sailing doon the water' on the Clyde. I remember seeing PS Caledonia racing PS Waverley on their return home to Glasgow on a Sunday evening in 1968, this was a regular occurence and was quite exciting! I also remember her in the 70's when she was moored as a floating 'gin palace' on the Thames which, for me, was very sad to see after her glorious, previous life.
