Here is my £1

I've been watching this with some interest. As a keen diver, it would make a fantastic artificial reef off the coast somewhere, like the uss oriskany in Florida.

Anyone fancy scuttling the old girl for me?

I would guess it would be sold for the scrap value (£2m) with the engines taken out. The invincible has just been through the same.....

Haven't really said much/anything about this on here, however last Friday I passed my entrance exam to the Royal Navy*. I for one am sad to see this great ship most likely end up becoming scrapped

• I await the obligatory PH style "sailor boy" jokes
