The shoreline at Southsea in 1990
Seen from a Cherbourg to Portsmouth ferry early in the morning. I had been booked to sail from St Malo the previous evening but when I arrived at the port to board the boat, an announcement was made that it had developed an engine fault. As I was a foot passenger, a coach was laid on to take my fellow travellers and me to Cherbourg, while drivers of other vehicles had to make their own ways. I travelled with Brittany Ferries and the return fare for the crossing was £62.00.
