Katherine Pitts, of the wonderful blog site I wish I Lived in a Library, asked me to do a guest post. I wrote it before I went underground to finish my book and am just now acknowledging her. Mea culpa, Katherine.
Katherine is a stay at home Mom with four (yes, four) children. She was previously a Systems Analyst dealing with computer security. In addition to reviewing books, she loves food and you’ll frequently find recipes on her blog along with movie and TV reviews. I encourage you to visit her blog – it’s always interesting and never, ever dull.
Now, with regard to my post. It’s about what life was like on the Mayflower for the passengers. I think you’ll agree, once you’ve perused it, that we might not be able to handle the voyage. I, for one, might have jumped overboard at some point. Check it out at:

Really bloody grim, indeed. A bit like commuting to Canary Wharf but without the seawater..
I wouldn’t have lasted long – might have jumped overboard a few weeks out!
A fascinating read, Noelle. What years did you work at Plymouth – I was going through old photos (taken in 1986) and have photos of “many an actor” in Plymouth!
I preceded you by just a few years – worked there in the 60s!
I could tell you’d been there!
Must have left an indelible mark!
Thanks so much! I definitely wouldn’t have made it. I probably would’ve jumped overboard right along with you!
