Arcadia (IV) & Black Watch (III)
Another unplanned stalking trip happened on the 20th September 2009.  Peter Knego was flying in to go on Black Prince two days later followed by Saga Rose as a lecturer on the 2nd October.  So we arranged to meet up.  I'd been on Lizzie when he was last over in June 2008 for Eurodam so missed him.  Arcadia and Black Watch were in, both listed to sail at 4.30pm.  Unusually Black Watch was in Mayflower instead of City, meaning she'd time waste by going all the way down to turn.  I went over on the ferry to Town Quay where I'd wait for him.
As I waited for the ferry to come back I noticed someone was cleaning Hotspur!  What a shame she wasn't running.  Peter would love that old classic.  Maybe when he's back she will be.
It's nicer when the ships are bow out that shoving their great bums in your face, especially Mary.  As we were passing Arcadia, Andy pointed out her lifeboats in the water.
