Re: Vindicatrix
While googling about another vessel in Sharpness, I found this story about a 1942 Vindi. I know a deck 1962 Vindi said this account brought back memories. He said they were starved and he had to write home for food parcels and Mum's fruit cake.

Also if you Google Sharpness Vinicatrix what did you do in the war daddy?
it should come up if label doesn't work.

Hi Lewis.
Thanks for that, I need all the help I can get as I'm only good for so many miles on the commuter then I get lost and start crying for my son.
Cheers Des
