Post; HMS Albion anyone?


I just wondered if any of you have heard about, or been aboard the British Royal Naval ship HMS Albion?
http://www.royal-navy.mod.uk/static/pages/5055.html

The reason why I'm wondering about this is that I'll probably stay aboard it during the excercise Joint Winter 04 here in Norway, as an Artillery Coordination Officer. (15-24 March).
I don't know much more about it other than what I have found on it's website.

It was a very nice little ship by the way, and the food and the mess "hall" was great as well..
Had a great time during my 1-2 weeks stay aboard.
