Jabido In relation to your 18.49 post I googled Cmdr Patterson RN who was one of the two officers on the visit.I came across this article https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/carrickfergus-named-as-venue-for-armed-forces-day-2021-39389493.html when you note his post the fact that he took the time to go on a visit makes me think he did not just want a day out. The other officer appears as if he may have been a personnel officer.
Nice fact find stokey12. That article alludes to the fact he is the most senior royal navy officer in NI? I can't imagine he's there just for a nostalgic tour of the company that built the titanic ;)
Maybe pure speculation but as part of any tender process it is normal for client reps to review the facilities etc. of the bidders as part of the tender process.
Maybe the commander and the captain were on such a visit. Maybe INFA are in the final stages of a tender process for MOD projects.
MajorThomas1 In relation to your 09.55 post I had a similar thought excpet in my case I was thinking that perhaps depending on how large his discretionary spend is the Cmdr was looking for a shipyard he could spot purchase repairs to vessels. The other possibility is that they are looking to train apprentices for thier shipyards. Both just speculation we will have to wait and see.
Either theories are promising I think. TTNY,, I greatly appreciate your ship spotting so thank you. However don't be giving JW anymore ideas for future projects! I think I draw the line at trains, unless they are hydro powered and we have found a way to fill the caverns with profitable hydrogen lol. On a separate note, past couple of days have seen lots of companies release half yearly reports /updates. Surely we should be getting one imminently too?!?
Jabido In relation to your 10.21 post about a month back I did email the Interim Director of Marketing and Communications at INFA her email address can be found under Meet the Team on the Harland and Woolf website. If youn go through my post history you will find her reply. In short no update until the Annual Report.
Thanks Stokey, so basically it will be in the new year for an update (past couple of years it's been published in January). That's a long time for me to wait impatiently lol. I might utilise that email address although if writing reports detracts from mega contract signings I suppose I can wait
