    Smashing video. Somebody really knows his stuff, to tell us about all those boats! Great to see the Naval Service fly the flag in London 😊

      I'd rather see Irish naval vessels doing the job allocated and spend their operations time protecting Ireland's territorial waters. This unnecessary "visit" is a complete waste of taxpayers money and resources.

    There should be.

      Even better would be “Dave Allen” but that would mean breaking off a bit of one of the masts…

    Wonderful to see those LFB boats bombing around in their own neck of the woods. We caught one of those being tested up here (Tanner).
    Lovely to see an Irish Naval ship too!

    I bet the crew of the Le George Bernard Shaw were ready for a pint after making up in the dock.
    The Dunkirk Little Ship did a Return to the West India Dock, I think it was 2011.
    Great to see the variety of craft using the Thames, I did visit the old fire boat Massey Shaw that's also a Dunkirker, on a Return to Chatham.

      Yes - it will ony be a one off. Someone nearby started playing loud music as soon as I started filming and then stopped when I finished filming so the original audio was completely unusable. I think they were being awkward. Luckily this does not happen very often so hopefully everything will be back to normal for the next video!
