Hurled on hurlingGot a freebie that involved a short "pleasure" cruise. On the Irish Sea. In December. No wonder it was free. 20ft waves pounded the ship with seasickness-inducing fury.
The highlight was when I was talking excitedly with Hughie and Ralph on the big white phone in our cabin's bathroom. The door opens. It's Mrs Calgacus come to check on me. I summon up the strength to lift my head from the loo to reassure her by gasping: "It's OK. I'm all right."
She was promptly sick into the loo. Only, there was an obstacle between her and the loo: my head.
No need.
