MV Devonshire and Dunera

Here are the images as promised. The two photos were taken on the Dunera. I travelled to Aden with our mother and my two brothers, Raymond (9) and Derek (6). I was 12 at the time. The lower one is the children's fancy dress party and the upper one my brother Derek (dark hair) sitting on the deck. We were going to Aden to join my father, an RAF sergeant, and were there 3 years, before returning to UK. It was the most exciting time of my young life. I am today a writer, having some 70 novels published, and I am sure my time in the exotic land of Southern Arabia had a lot to do with my choice of career.
