 Sailed on the Uganda on the 11/10/1971. All i have left is a postal schedule which reads - party ref. 'L' - "HILLARY".
We departed Southampton at 1600hrs, ports of call were-
Madeira /Casablanca / Malaga and Lisbon arriving back in Southampton at 0900 on the 24/10/1971.
We had a great journey, something i will allways remember,
from coming runner up in the deck hockey (from all the schools) to smuggling booze on board and balancing on the ships rails (idiots).
My biggest regret was not seeing her off when she went to the Falklands or on her last journey from the Fal estuary Falmouth.
I did go to smugglers cottage to see some of the memorabilia and sign the sailed on the UGANDA book.
What a great ship.
