First stop is a cargo ship in Japan, which is the scene of Dodging The Bullet, the third episode in the account by Malcolm J. Croan of his exploits as a young man.
We're on a ship of a different kind - a cruise liner off Acapulco, in fact - in Deeper Water, another humorous tale from Angus Shoor Caan.
Then it's back to Glasgow Airport, the setting for Postcards from the Departure Lounge, a poignant piece by Gavin Broom.
Coming next - stories featuring ghosts, footballers and party-goers.
