jeeff: is that a normal paint job for a ship like that?
jeeff: 8th Sep 2005 - 01:52 GMT
ps. good to see you back, even though you endanger my spot on the top 10. ;)
jeeff: 8th Sep 2005 - 11:15 GMT
so i guessed. it's just weird to think that those patterns could camouflage anything.
elaine: 8th Sep 2005 - 12:04 GMT
yeah, but my guess is that being at sea is a bit like being in a desert, but with choppier waves and refracted light. hard to test the theory without taking the boat out, and i don't think they'd let us.

looks like it might even have been a later addition, but anyway here you can see it coming into it's current location, tower bridge open for a boat hmsbelfast.iwm.org.uk/server/show/nav.00e00400a

The dazzle ships were real (and also the name of an OMD album).

camouflage made it difficult to tell in which direction the ship was headed.

Crane Game
Crane games are popular in Korea and Japan (and elsewhere I'm sure). Most crane games give you six tries when you pay 1000won.
This particular crane game had American currency on offer. I've seen a lot of strange things on...
