Hi Harvey
Good to see you are posting again which you said you were going to do in your email the other day. Keeping my fingers crossed for a good result on Sunday. Also am an ardent Man City fan for the next few weeks if you what I mean.
Regards
John

Hi Harvey
Yes good to see you on Board again and hope that it will be a long and fruitful stay.
Which UCL Ships were you on ?
Just curious.
Cheers

If you cannot find your Dis Book,there is your Seamans Pouch which sometimes will have some of your Ships etc!
I know that the CRS10 would be a lot better !
Cheers

Now here is something very interesting,unless you have perhaps by error posted the incorrect dates Harvey??
This to me would be a first if your dates are correct!
I say this as normally if you were at Sea after 1972 then there would be no records kept as far as I am aware?? But in this case there are Records of yours!??
But as said this would be very interesting,perhaps Hugh may be able to shed light on this!
As said Harvey very interesting!
Cheers

Harvey, from engine room to second steward and cook, some transformation!

Thats what you call proper promotion. JS

In a thread recently Vic bought the unreliability of Rolls Royce D type straight 8 generator engines into doubt , thinking of Harvey's transformation , those engines had occasional leaking water problems , the cure was mustard powder and eggs beaten and poured into the system , it clogged up the leaks ,
I forgot about then need for an engine room cook for Rolls Royce Engines
