Re: I wish
#20.. When you think about it John a lot must have been short changed and not got their monies worth. We used to turn in after 1700 hrs. and go ashore about 2300 hrs. After God knows how long knocking it back went to bed, if not picked up by the Vigilantes and spend a few hours in a cell before street cleaning later, as tried to get back to the ship by 0700, the ladies of the night must have had an easier time than expected. The steak egg and chips were certainly worth the money. Cheers John S
