Merci, Monsieur Pelé

En 2013, j'ai eu le plaisir de compter sur l'aide généreuse de M. Michel Pierre Pelé, auteur du site UIM Marine, dans mes recherches sur ce bateau restaurant. Dix ans plus tard, lors de la publication de cette description, j'ai essayé de lui envoyer les images du "Navispace – Duc de Bretagne" à Lisboa pour inclusion sur le site UIM Marine – mais sans succès. J'espère que tout va bien. Et comme je n'oublie jamais une courtoisie, voici mes remerciements publics à M. Michel Pierre Pelé. En conclusion, je crois que les hommes du Morbihan qui ont construit ce bateau restaurant en 1982 seront heureux de savoir que leur "fille" navigue encore en 2023. ● PS

Back to Normality

Image
After the disastrous choice of the British operator VODAFONE as my internet provider , which sent my connectivity back into the dark ages and whose mediocre or non-existent service affected five months of publications (September, October, November, December and January), it is finally possible to bypass the obstacle with the support of an interested party. The return to normality should occur from February 20th, closing with sixteen publications the cycle dedicated to passenger vessels in regular or tourist service on the Tejo River. As a note of interest, partly motivated by this disastrous experience with the British operator VODAFONE, I will soon launch a new digital space –  UNPLEASANT | LX . It will be interesting. By the way, the problem reported to the operator VODAFONE in August 2023 is still unsolved in February March April October November 2024 . Literally, unbelievable . As I wrote in one of several texts published on social media and made known in Berkshire, «[…] ...
