Clydebank Post coverage – 13th October 2016
“Major conference on historic vessel to be held in Clydebank to mark 50th anniversary.”
I was delighted to see yesterday that the Clydebank Post has written a fabulous article highlighting the event.
I contacted them a few weeks ago to give them details about it, and they were only too glad to help. They have promised to follow the event closely between now and the day of the event itself. We have already received emails from people who have read the article and are keen to find out more.” Here is a link to the article to enjoy –
