Can't believe this site exists! Brought back lots of memories! I was on Uganda in 1978 (Southampton - Malaga,Sicily, Athens and Istanbul). I was 14 and with the Folkestone Tech For Girls. Made lots of friends, mainly from Dover Boys Grammar, Norton Knatchbull (or whoever we had to share a coach with!)
I remember someone breaking his leg while boarding a launch on a trip to Pireaus, dormitories with metal bunks, one of the crew who we nicknamed 'Action Man', the Indian guys who worked so hard in the kitchens, dancing to 'Grease' at the disco,and rough seas when the waves were coming through the classroom portholes. I was in 'Doughty' dorm (still have my badge). Would be fun to hear from anyone who may remember me.
