Funny thing i was just lying in my bunk thinking of all the UCL Mail Ships and their Sailings from various Ports .
I thought that each two Months one would do a complete Round trip (8 weeks) Starting at Southampton, stopping at one or more of the Canary Islands,then on to Cape Town, East Lobdon ,Port Elizabeth and then Durban,then turn around and do the same back with possibly a different Port on was back at the Canary Islands.
Why i was thinking of this is that i was trying to visualise how many Ships in all at one time were in different places during the 8 Week period!
EG Say the Stirling was in Cape Town, the Winchester in Southampton, the Cape Town Castle in say one of the Canary Islands etc
So in all there would be quite a few at Sea together.
There would also be one or two in Southampton for the two Week period of maintenance etc.
Cheers
