Fifty years ago, Nationwide met a trio of wonderful ladies - Mrs Simpson, Mrs Smith and Miss Lee.
They were season ticket holders for the Llandudno to Douglas steamship, as the triumvirate spent each day of the summer season - 57 days in total - making the six-hour return trip.

2016 was a complete write off so far as ship photos go. I have precisely 1 in the archive and this is it.
Pharos off Port Erin, July 2016.
I had changed my job in 2015, which meant a lot less (practically no) foreign travel, so far fewer opportunities for ship photography.
