Laurie. I sailed on the Peridot and did the first dry dock in Japan, I was forth engineer and really cannot remember many of the names of the time, One of the deck cadets was Ian Main who came from Carstairs I do remember how great it felt just having come from the Burmah Cameo where even at 21 found the going tough, maybe that was because I was 21 and did'nt realise that you needed to sleep sometimes.
All the best.
George Laird.
