Wednesday 8th October, 2025 – Southampton to Home (via Hungerford) And so we arrived back in Southampton ready to disembark after 12 nights of being so well looked after.

Travel 2025 – Cunard Queen Anne – Day 12 (At Sea, Heading for Southampton)
Tuesday 7th October, 2025 – Stavanger to Southampton Tuesday was our last full day on board and so much of it was dedicated to attempting to repack. Why do dirty clothes take up so much more space than clean ones do? Even if you fold them exactly the same? Of course having to pack a…

Travel 2019 – Barcelona, Day 2
Wednesday, 12th June 2019 – Barcelona, Day 2 We hit the ground running first thing in the morning, rattled through the work at a great pace, and finished everything by around 16:30, to our great surprise.
