Some 70's Memorabilia

[muppetdodger]

I've recently been clearing through my mums house after she passed away, and have come across our old scrap books of holidays touring with our caravan to France in the late 60's and early 70's. I've scanned some of the more interesting stuff and will post some of it on this thread. Hope you enjoy.

March / April 1979, FE2 was still at Dover (probably on the Calais route).  Is that where this photo was taken?

She went to Portsmouth in 1980 for her last season with TT, partnering Viking Victory on the Cherbourg route.

Yes, I am sure this was Dover calais, we then drove down to the southern alps for a family skiing holiday.
