Historic Day!!!
I remember, nearly, that today in 1953 we sailed from Singapore for UK on the Troop Ship Dunera – day before Coronation Day
I only remember dressing up for the childrens’ party as King Farouk – a pair of pyjamas, a pillow under them and a fez
I was 8 and my Dad was in the RAF at Changi – we went out again to Changi about 1955 to 1958 – what a place to spend one’s youth!!
