of course,dear!Saloons and not sallons.These Frenchs will never respect anything...On the net ,I've found incredible pictures of the mauretania,never seen such a quality!Lost the site but if you google the name of the ship ,and picture ,you cannot miss a pic of the steamer's stair,that astound me:you cannot see the water in the wreck because it's cristal-clear!You really have to try.
The Mauretania was turn to a troop transport,so,many of her luxuous artifacts were removed before.It's credible that the ones in restaurant were real ones.Au revoir ,dear Navyman!

Found post at last, will try pics now.....keep those fingers crossed!

Yes I thought so, I did try to send them before but couldn't as it just tells me that they are invalid files. I'm feeling very invalid myself today! Can you send me an e.mail address and I'll attach them to that. If not send an address and I'll print and post them to you. I'm determined not to let myself be defeated by technology, (typically stubborn Englishman)!
Hang on until I reply again as I will try the photocopier method next.

Cheers,
Guy.
