HMS Ocean, a helicopter platform, is berthed at Greenwich. Here's a picture of a helicopter landing on it: <http://www.web-options.com/P0050019.jpg> On my way back home I noticed a couple of boats full of men in black balaclavas - although it wasn't particularly chilly, a nice warm scarf and a pair of mittens would have done. <http://www.web-options.com/P0050031.jpg> Here they are arriving back at the ship, probably looking forward to a lovely mug of hot chocolate: <http://www.web-options.com/P0050033.jpg> Here's some news footage of HMS Ocean nearly hitting the Thames Barrier on the way in: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QluTs5e0uIA> There are some Rapier ground-to-air missiles up on Blackheath, about a mile away.
