This is our last day on board the Aurora . We are now sailing rapidly towards Southampton and will be arriving in the early hours of Thursday morning. The ship is rather like one large waiting room with people seeking different ways of passing the time. There are many people reading in every public room while the cinema is full and many others are attending the last in the series of lectures. We went to listen to a talk on the Falklands War by a former navy officer who had served on the staff of the commanding admiral. It was a bit technical but clearly well informed if rather biased in favour of Margaret Thatcher. Chris went to the cinema to see the Last Three Days while I attended the last talk about 15th and 16th century pottery by David Barby.
We have successfully packed everything and can only wait until the morning to collect it. Hopefully the taxi arrangements will work and we will be home in the early afternoon.
