I thought this run was cancelled - we booked it last year then they called us to say it was cancelled and transferred us to Caen with no extra cost (our usual run)...I'm referring to Brittany Ferries - are you going P&O?

I'm going Portsmouth-Cherbourg too!
I guess it's P&O, as long as it doesn't sink it'll be marvellous. It's supposed to be the fast one, so I reckon that means it's pointier at the front end than the others.
I'm on the Tuesday afternoon crossing though, I'll leave a present for you in the Gents, it should be easy enough to find.

H, did you mean naval or anal architecture as the latter is what you are best known for. Heard from Sav latley.
