The curtain is poised ready for falling as Day 69 approaches with indecent haste. The Dollars will be put away until next year, and soon having my room cleaned daily, fresh towels and face cloths also each day, nightly pillow chocolates and newspaper, as well as that Daily Programme…., such pampering will cease on August 8th.
I am booked on the 11.17 train from Southampton to Macclesfield and already, contemplating that four hour journey, the last almost 10 weeks will morph into some kind of dream that actually happened.
Today was one of little activity. I attended a “Senior Officers’ Party” in the Queens Room. The glass of champagne contributed to my feeling very drowsy for most of the rest of the day. The last dregs of my cold are reluctant to disappear.
I spent the afternoon in my stateroom resting and also preparing for packing. I still intend mailing stuff from Greenock.
The above images should be self explanatory.
Tonight, after dinner in the Britannia Restaurant, Denise, Glenis and I attended the Crew Show, in aid of Help for Heroes. This was full and standing and was received throughout with all-round enthusiasm from the audience.
