So the past three years of training to become a Navigation Officer in the merchant navy has come to an end. I have handed in my notice to the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and have taken a job with Carnival UK, part of Carnival Group which owns most of the world's cruising industry. I will be based on one of the UK based ships (P&O Cruises, Cunard, Ocean Village, Princess Cruises and P&O Australia).
So right now I am just waiting to find out which ship I will be going on. However, this does give me the opportunity to watch the Rugby World Cup. Which I have to say has not been too good so far for England, but very good if you are natural. With Argentina beating the hosts France in the first game and then major underdogs coming close with Namibia just losing out to Ireland. It really shows how good the World Cup can be and how much determination really does play in this fantastic sport.
Well there are a lot of exciting times ahead for me in the next couple of weeks, joining my new ship and watching as much of the World Cup as I possibly can. I will keep you updated as and when I can.
