Hi Fitz, 
I was on a charter sailing on QUEEN MARY II ( special train from Tyneside to Largs thence cruise) and she entered Loch Striven but never really went far up. I was privledged to be on the bridge, as the master (fleet commodore) was a near neighbour from Blairmore, - Captain Pugwash or rather Malcolm MacLean!

Looks like she is off to France.
To open as a business 2010, at least she has been saved from the scrap heep for now.

Hope they don't change her apearance beyond recognition though   

Just saw on BBC news (London regional) that QM2 was towed away today, apparently (if I didn't misunderstand what was being said) the main reason was to allow the Savoy Hotels' private pier to be greatly enlarged....
