Cunard's 148,000 tonne flagship Queen Mary 2 at sea
Dream Designs Colchester are delighted to announce another exciting upcoming event in their illustrious history of ship visits and voyages!

In June 2012, Harry Cotterill, President & Managing Director, Dream Designs Colchester and his father Brian Cotterill, will join Cunard's flagship Queen Mary 2 in Southampton, for a 5 night voyage around Northern Europe to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty The Queen.

They will depart on the 5 night voyage from Southampton on Tuesday June 5th 2012, where Cunard’s Royal Rendezvous will take place to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty The Queen, with Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth berthed at the various cruise terminals.
Peter Shanks, President, Cunard Line, said:

" Since the launch of Queen Elizabeth this past fall, it has been remarkable to see the response to our ships as they tour the globe. As the pace of life accelerates, more and more people are seeking unique experiences, traditional values and service excellence. Our unrivalled heritage and youngest fleet in the world are proving to be more popular than ever."
On June 6th 2012, Dream Designs Colchester will celebrate Harry Cotterill’s 18th Birthday, aboard Queen Mary 2 whilst on route to Rotterdam. What better way to celebrate after what will be a very memorable day for both Cunard and the City of Southampton!

The following day the vessel will berth in Rotterdam, followed by Zeebrugee and Le Havre the next day, where guests will have the opportunity to take an excursion to Paris for wonderful shopping and sightseeing. Queen Mary 2 will finally return to Southampton on June 10th 2012.

Well done young Harry. What an exclusive opportunity for you to enjoy.

I hope my colleague Stephen Payne was able to provide you with helpful information with regards to your career choice. I never received a response from you so I presume you are happy with what is necessary to be successful in this industry.

Good luck. Tim.
