Since 1971 the light cruiser HMS Belfast (1938) has been permanently moored in the River Thames, London, England, as a museum ship. To the left of it, The Shard (2012), an iconic 87-floor skyscraper, is the tallest building in the UK.

Since my main bag did not turn up at Heathrow, with just my carry on luggage, decided to head up to London on the way home. To go to the monthly 'Green Drinks', my first in ages, near London Bridge, then witness a sunset (no sunset in Svalbard to late August) near Tower Bridge. And, with the heat (also a contrast with Svalbard), all the ladies of London looking rather gorgeous and very fashionable in their summer dresses. Great to walk around London after a hectic couple of days. Just have to wait and see when my bag turns up! #london #towerbridge #toweroflondon #hmsbelfast #theshard #stpaulscathedral #Summertime #summerlondon (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf7TUOdjKHx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

SCHARNHORST...

A steel grey Tiger Shark, slicing through the icy chop of the North Sea at flank speed. Fully intent on severing the vital supply arteries that, alone, kept Great Britain alive and fighting in the darkest days of World War Two.

Nine eleven inch guns, housed in triple turrets faced with armour plating a full, fourteen inches thick. They wrought deadly work.

Her victims included an aircraft carrier, an armed merchant cruiser, two destroyers, and twenty-two British merchant ships. But she was always on borrowed time.

In February 1942, she led the desperate, daytime breakout from Brest that came to be known as the Channel Dash. Scharnhorst, with her sister ship, Gneisenau and the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen 'succeeded where the Spanish Armada failed' in a subsequent lead page editorial in The Times.

Ultimately, the Scharnhorst died as violently as she lived, lashing out desperately at a relentless steel ring of thirteen British and Norwegian warships that finally brought her to bay.

Reduced to a slowly sinking pile of blazing, bloody scrap, she and the great bulk of her brave, fallen crew now lie forever entombed beneath a thousand feet of freezing Arctic sea water, some ninety-three miles away from the North Cape of Norway...
