I’ve been told alcohol and history make a good pairing. Who’s looking for something to do next Friday night?

I have managed to distill my personality into my Sunday best.
First post coming over from Twitter. Don’t know what to say about me that the bio doesn’t cover. 11 year museum professional, 10 of them in historic ships. I enjoy diesel boats, the age of sail, and have a growing fondness for the New Steel Navy. If you like any of those or related things, let’s be friends.
