Another book launch. Curious Cargo, a cargo ship travel book will be launched on 11th December, in the Knox Hall, Monkstown. (Full details later). It is an account of two voyages on cargo ships that Hilary, my wife, and I sailed on, one to the Caribbean, the West Indies and South and Central America for five weeks and the second for four weeks into the Mediterranean. It gives an account of life at sea on a freighter and of trips ashore in interesting places while vessels are in port. Threaded through these accounts are ruminations that are stimulated by time at sea without the pressures of everyday life; thoughts about politicians, bankers, the stars, the universe and the meaning of life itself. See http://www.codegreenpublishing.com/media.html Further details on this site soon. You are warmly invited to attend the launch. (It is customary in polite society to apologise for punning, and this I do. Twice!)
