April 2020 : QE2 Upper Deck

[Isabelle Prondzynski]

This month's theme is the "QE2 Upper Deck", chosen by George C Griffiths, the winner of the December 2019 competition.

Looking forward to your photos, and to imagining ourselves back in all those wonderful places on the Upper Deck. Even exterior photos are fine, provided they are of the Upper Deck!

Enjoy the search .


The prize this month is the Isle of Man special set of stamps depicting the Queen Victoria, donated by Lynda Bradford.

Alternatively, June Ingram is offering a jigsaw of the prizewinning picture. The choice is yours -- which will it be?

Gosh there are so many interesting places on Upper Deck, the Mauretania Restaurant, Crystal Bar, Theatre, Casino, Golden Lion, Grand Lounge, Yacht Club,  names we remember from QE2's latter years , but if you have photos of these areas in earlier years - even better.   

Enjoy looking at your QE2 photo albums and selecting 3 photos to enter for the competition.

Have delved into past memories and one thing led to another so it took a long time to make my final selection.
There was one that I wanted to put in but I changed my mind at the last minute.......I'm not going to tell you what I rejected or what one nearly got left out !!!!
Good luck to everyone and I'm looking forward to seeing all the entries.

Thanks Frazscot for taking time to look at your photo collection and upload your three pictures to the completion. 

Looking forward to seeing lots more pictures of QE2 Upper Deck. I have uploaded my 3 photos.
