I was on that one- Jan/Feb 1978 - I almost bought one of those dodgy camel whips but swapped it for a leather one in time...still got most of the memenots- brought them home for my mum and somewhere I have photos. THe food was lousy, I got airsick, seasick and homesick and survived the fortnight on Revels and 7-Up. Remember they served food up in those grotty metal mess tins?
