Evening
4:25pm ~ Unfortunately we had to leave the ground pretty much immediately as our coach was leaving at 4:45pm. But several of us enjoyed a good sing-song on our way back to the bus!! Not sure how pleased the people of Glasgow were about hearing us, but hey!! Who cares?!

4:50pm ~ Celebrations continued on the bus, beginning with a rendition from the entire bus of Stand Up For The Ulster Men - beautiful!

5:01pm ~ Left Glasgow, this time without the scenic tour!

At this point I should confess that several members of our bus, myself included, chose the trip back to the ferry as a good opportunity to catch up on some much-needed sleep!
Some time after 7pm ~ everyone was piled back on the ferry - no flags allowed off the coaches tho :-(
The celebrations definitely got into full swing on the ferry, as most people headed for the bar!! However, the constant rocking of the boat made sure that I didn't eat or drink anything...
However, the pace was just too much for some, who chose the ferry journey as a good opportunity to rest their weary selves...but at the special request of the two lovely ladies involved, I have removed these gorgeous photos - sorry!!
9:48pm ~ Our group celebrations ended as we were told to head back to the coaches.

9:57pm ~ We hit the great shores of Northern Ireland again - thank heavens - I had issues with the boat!!

En route home, we had some fantastic Elvis renditions and our very own 'Elvis' on board!!

10:39pm ~ Very tired, but very happy, we arrived back at Ravenhill. Don't know how impressed my Mum was with the huge flags we brought with us, but hey!!!
