Notes :
(1) It has been suggested by some that this tour was postponed and ran instead
on 21st April 1963 however a letter seen by the Webmaster confirms that
prospective passengers for this tour were informed that it had been cancelled
due to insufficient numbers and cheques were returned un-cashed. It appears the
postponement suggestion may stem from the fact that it has been suggested
that the original tour tickets were employed in 1963 (though passengers on that
date had also to be in possession of another more basic ticket dated for the
1963 running date).
