Union Castle Stewardess 1960's Memoirs....
I found the following little gem by Mary Spreadbury(nee Braniff). Mary was a stewardess with Union Castle in the 1960's.
There are a few pictures including her Discharge Book,and she mentions the Seamen's Strike of 1966 ,and her memories of apartheid in South Africa.
I thought it fitting that she should get recognition by being mentioned on our British M.N.Site.
Perhaps some of you sailed with her......
