Built in Ipswich by Charles Fox and son in 1936, who's biggest claim to fame is that she took part in the Dunkirk evacuations in 1940.

@mumswise @stoughton_p The statue is on Vauxhall Bridge. I seem to remember my Father in law telling me during WWII, a German fighter aircraft flew under the bridge and shot shot the statues, and damaging them, and the holes are still there today

We we made it home tired and happy that we had been part of an elongated 85th anniversary cruise to Dunkerque to commentate Operation Dynamo. We are all home tired and happy.
