Frank sweeny-patricia aspin
i know this may sound like an unusal email, but im currently looking for my biological grandfather, and need as much help as i can find. and was wondering if you may be of any help.
I have been given very limited information on the mentioned man.
I believe he is called FRANK SWEENEY,and also believe he served on CANADIAN PACIFIC (empress of canada), around the 1960's. im not sure what exactly his role was upon this ship, but i also believe he originated from SPEKE - LIVERPOOL.
My grandmother also worked on this ship around the same time. her name is PATRICIA ASPIN. if anyone knows or remembers these 2 people, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
I know this is very limited information, but if you have any information, no matter how big or small, i would be very grateful.
Well thank you for taking your time to read this email. i look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you once again
Yours sincerly

On the ships I sailed on they had an inverted "T" bar and you stood with your feet on the bottom bar and hung onto the vertical. This enabled you to jump off quickly as you were swung over the lock on a special boom at the break of the foc'le. Anyone remember these, wot appens now as them elf n safti wud ave a blu fit mate innit! whateffer.
