Nelson & His World

A new curator has been appointed to HMS Victory:

I see Peter Goodwin is (according to wiki) now the Local History Officer and Curator of Portsmouth Museum and Records Service. Is this true?

P-C:

I think it is Peter Goodwin's wife who is the Local History Officer and Curator of Portsmouth Museum.

He was, apparently, dismissed from his post as Curator of Victory some time ago. I assumed it was because of the report into the precarious state of Victory, but apparently not. I have posted a quotation from a blog by a friend of PG giving some background to the situation. You'll find it Inside Nelson's World.

Dozy me, i read it wrong, Goodwin resides in Southsea with his wife, the Local History Officer and Curator of Portsmouth Museum and Records Service.
