Alia Iacta Est

By iactaest

Where is ?

Established in 1736, the Gourock Ropeworks company moved into the mill building, rebuilding it in 1886. It produced canvas and sailcloth as well as cordage ropes and fishing nets. At its peak it employed over 1,500 men. The Comet (the world's first steamship) was supplied with ropes and the Queen Mary of 1936 with towing Bowsers. Production ended in 1975.

What are our pretensions ?
Port Glasgow is the Geographic reality
Gourock is the perceived 'better location'

Where are we really located ?
What is our 'perceived better location ?"

Do we even know any more ?

Is the Lie truth ?
or the truth Lie ?
