    Hi Charlie,the Alex I drink in is South Road Waterloo,I bumped into Eddy in the Alex I was talking about this site,he said Pat Brady is on the computer all the time to Charlie Hannah in Australia.I told him that you were on this site thats when he told me that him and Pat used to drink with you around Bootle.It was the day before the Grand National Eddy had a fiver on an 11/1 which gave him £60 he stuck a fiver in my hand and wanted to make a fuss of me with the beer,which I did'nt let him of course.It's a small world.I was on the Salinas and when we got to Panama on the way home the Purser gave me a note to say that there was a Registered Letter for me in the office.I called into PSNC when I went the pool the letter was for Pat Brady from some girl in Altrincham who I think was a passenger on the Pacifico or the Mar,she wanted to contact him.I ripped it up.
    Regards.

    Hi Charlie,your back jigger ran into our street Shelley St..This guy Davy Lawler lived right behind you 2 shelley.he has just written a book all about the area during those years,Susie Slater gets a mention obviously.He was in the same class as me at ST.James's he mentions me in the book I sent him a pm disclaiming his story on me.Do you ever log on to the Bootle Forum? you will most probably come across people you know.For anybody else that wishes to see some good pics of ships comong and going on the Mersey worth a look,also pics of dockers at work.
    Regards.
    Jim.B.
