Re: Old Shipmates
I've been trying for years to locate an old shipmate and pal, originally from Glasgow, Peter Higgins, ships we both worked on, early 1960s :
'Trevalgan' (Haines), "British Fame" (BP), "Stirling Castle" (UCL). Interestingly a group photo in the gallery posted by member Mike Hewitt,
taken at the Vindi training school, (catering), which I know Peter attended, shows a chap who could very well be the same person.
