Hi,

The Ulster Titanic Society has just posted a photo of Lord pirrie's Grave Stone which features a carving of Olympic.

Belfast is a great place to visit. Olympic and Titanic's birthplace must surely be one of the warmest and kindest places in the world, contrary to the way the media likes to portray it.

This site requires patience. The graphics are around 140kb each. Some don't work (using Internet Explorer). If necessary, right click on the little red cross in the corner of the blank spaces and then click Show Picture. It's worth it for the good shots of the monument and the graving dock.

thanks for posting the interesting homepage.

It was very interesting to see how it looks today at H&W.

Brandon,

Are you referring to me?

LOL Jason! Man, what was wrong with me last night!? Yes, it was you I was referring to. I've got to start getting more sleep!

LOL Brandon! I figured you were referring to me. I'll definitely share a few pictures here from my trip.

Best regards,

That's cool, JASON. Yes; I got your name right that time! Going to bed early last night helped!

On the opposite side to the Olympic, is a panel depicting a ship with full canvas sails. This was the "Venetian", 1508 gross tons: the first steam ship built by Harland and Wolff in 1860 for the Bibby Line.

LOL Brandon!

Martin,

You wouldn't happen to be a descendant of Lord Pirrie, would you? I'm just curious.
