Just been watching the passage of the Royal Navy's last Type 42 Destroyer HMS Edinburgh across Lyme Bay en route to Portsmouth for decommissioning.
Rather a sad ending for this old lady of the seas which has given such sterling service to the nation for the past thirty years.
The passage of the frigate has been somewhat mysterious as she was sighted in the bay two days ago and details on maritime agencies still refuse to give details of destination (reserved) as she is still classed as a combat vessel.
We salute her as she goes to her resting place.
