I have in the past seen a shortage of "Brains" in South Wales and it is a disaster. A black day.

G'day Micheal and welcome to the site. If you could add some dates to the ship it might help to jog the memory of some who may have know you. Any bit of information will make it a bit easier.
Sure there will be someone who remembers you.
