Cutty Sark too
Other examples of Cutty Sark around the World
It is a bird , a plane, a ship, a motel, a dance....
We travelled the World, just as the Cutty Sark did on her famous record breaking journeys to collect tea from the East Indies. Our journey was in Cyber-space and we found a number of name-sakes along the way!
You can sail in her, fly in her, drink her, sleep in her. Collect models of her in ceramic, glass or wood. You may want to sing about her but if you're a German band you might end up in Dire Strait's. You can even take a trip in Virtual Reality if Doctor Who doesn't get there first!

Buy the Dire Straits album Communiqué - the track Single Handed Sailor refers to the Cutty Sark
