We came out from Scotland in 1961, I was 3yrs old.

The only memory I have of it is a photo my uncle took of me and my cousin (also 3) having a peeing contest over the side from the top deck. :(

My uncle swears to this day that he heard people from the decks below complaining about the warm rain.:D

Thanks to Mick (mickalex) and the National Archives I now know it was on the SS ORONTES departing Tilbury.

I was able to track down a photo (thanks to Duncan Whitrow) of the ship docked in Outer Harbour, Adelaide in 1961. This is where we got off the ship, probably when this photo was taken.

Here are the photos from P&O Pacific Sun - December 8, 2007 - N739

They are the same ones from the review, but are easier to find in this thread :)

I'm still going through the photos Geoff, loving it so far.

425 photos, all I can say is "Thank goodness for digital cameras, memory cards, laptops and portable storage".

You must have taken hundreds, possibly thousands.

Did you have the camera surgically removed when you got back? :D;):D

Videos on "Youtube" - copied from my review (too lazy to write any thing different).;) :D

Video 2 - Snorkeling Mystery Island. 2nd attempt (getting better)

Video 3 - Snorkeling Isle of Pines. 3rd attempt (might be as good as it gets, will not quit my day job)
