POSTCARD FROM POLYNESIA

 

It's the 24th December, 1979 and Tom Woods has a job in the engine room of a merchant ship. After a brief layover in Tahiti, he is about to embark on a 24 day 4,200 mile trip to the Panama Canal. He takes the time to send a Happy Xmas card to his Mum in Plymouth, although it will not arrive until well into the New Year, hopefully bringing joy and a small amount of tropical cheer into what was undoubtedly a cold and miserable January back in the UK.
