One thing that caught my eye in my recent sojourn at The National Archive (TNA) was a file labelled 'Proposal to convert obsolete aircraft carriers into mother ships for trawler fleet 1959-1960' (TNA MAFF 209/1811). Sadly I didn't have time to investigate further, but does anyone know anything more about this? I appreciate it was one of the more off the wall ideas from the period but there's a certain humour in it.
