(Though we did have a party on one of the party ferries in Fresher's week, all those years ago. I was a wee bit green after the heady combination of pernod and black and all that bobbing up and down!)

I have always enjoyed getting on.
Always the highlight of a trip out as a kid. There were no Pernod and blacks being supped mind.

My three love it too. Probably the novelty factor.
