Notes: Laid off during the cull following the start of the Iran/Iraq war. Could have gone back to sea with another company, Thought about it, but was missing my mates back home. Took the money and came ashore, Spent 30 years driving trucks, then Buses and Coaches. A brief spell making bits for yachts, 3 years in a call centre fixing Sky TV systems. Also done a bit of work working on aircraft for the movie industry in my spare time. (I always was 'plane mad!...or should that be plain mad?)Was with my ex for 12 years, had a daughter, now 27. Now with my current wife for over 17 years. Living in Bognor Regis, West Sussex. 2 mins walk from the sea! Nearest I get out these days is on my mates 14ft dory! Currently unemployed/disabled due to severe health problems. (if it all goes pear shaped I'm in good hands, My wife is an undertaker so I get a staff discount!)If I was single and healthy though, i'd sign on again tomorrow!
