Very jealous of HMS Bulwark.

I have recently purchased a more modern one on ebay. I am making up a number of glazed display boxes relating to family service in WW1 and WW2.

I had a very distant relative killed in the Bulwark explosion off Sheerness in November 1914.

I used to see his name carved in the lych gate of the parish church when I was staying with my grandparents in the country in the school holidays.
