Interview and medical accepted as migrants. Southampton 1952 ship looks huge to me and these children, not to ex navy husband. Handed in ration books, sailing announcement King George VI died. Sad emotions but future hopes. Worked to get established enjoying Australia, grateful, blessed with a good happy life.
