Free Trip to America – Nearly

Six boys, aged seven to nine nearly got a free trip to America, last Sunday. They got on to the 42,000-ton ship Oriana, one of the world’s biggest passenger liners, by saying that their parents had their tickets and passports. As the ship sailed from Southampton on its way to the Caribbean and America, the boys laughed and waved goodbye to policemen on the dockside.

Unfortunately for them, the boys were discovered when they asked a sailor the way to the ‘café’. The sailor took them to the Captain, who checked up on them and radioed for the police boat to take them back to Southampton.

Two of the boys are called John, there are two Davids (aged seven and nine), and the others are called Larry and Michael. They say that their surname is Power, and claim to be cousins. Nine-year-old David said that their parents’ caravan was moved on by police from its side near Heathrow Airport on Sunday morning. The boys came back from a swimming trip, and found their home gone.

The boys took the Underground to Waterloo, bought platform tickets, and got on the boat train to Southampton. When they arrived there they thought it would be great to go to America, and boarded the Oriana.

Apparently this was not the first time the boys had experimented with foreign travel. They told police that a few weeks ago they went to France on the hovercraft, but were picked up by French police at Amiens and sent home.
