The vessel, a lifeline for 26 years to St Helena, was in London last week and today departed Tilbury. She was given a water salute from tugs as well as cannon fire from Tilbury and a confetti cannon. RMS St Helena is the last working Royal Mail Ship. There was rain and thunder to accompany her farewell. Credit : Rob Powell/LNP
