The ship is half full of timber for Australia and will arrive in Adelaide in late January 1951 but he won't be on it as he is handing in his book and will sign off in Gothenburg on the 11th December. He plans to spend Christmas in Oslo before travelling to London. He anticipates being back in Australia for good in the middle of 1951. letters-from-abroad, allan quinn, m s mongabarra, antwerp, gothenburg, norrkoping, sweden
