Ghost Ships?

There are two kinds!

It is strange to know that there are many abandoned ships in our Oceans floating about, and one hopes that they are being tracked?

The Ghost ship comes in two forms the mentioned above, with many in the Pacific ocean after the Japanese Tsunami some years ago and the recent arrival of a research ship on the south-Cork coast this week after Storm Dennis, Republic of Ireland.

The other type is a weather related sea mirage, in which vessels at some distance appear to much nearer or floating about the water. In some cases this has lead to fanciful tales of cities, islands and even seen UFO's?

Despite the modern advances in GPS global positioning there is still so much that we do not now about the vastness and the isolation of our oceans and what is floating out there from the obvious containers and abandoned or ship wrecked vessels?

Classic Automobiles.

From day one to now.

Modern humanity today cannot now survive without the 'Automobile, it was also the same prior to the development of the car that we relied on the horse and cart for thousands of years. 

When does are car become a classic? 

Ten years old, twenty or more, some actually just after they have been revealed to the public. Because their design and build and their limited number produced, is the factor that makes them very desirable.

What kind of car do you consider to be a classic? 

Everyone will have their own favourites so I will state my own cars that I would like to have.

Mustang,  Rolls Royce silver Ghost,  Jensen,  Triumph Stag,  Mercedes-Benz 1300,  Austin Riley,  Riva Cossack, Jaguar of any type or period and the Lamborghini in orange.
