Re: On rare occasions
Hi Vernon.
Good post mate, it's so good to have nice clear pictures to put faces to people. A pity about the weather but as long as you all had a good time that's what counts.
I see Lou was not backward in coming forward where the barbeque is concerned, one thing about old seamen they love thier grub.
Cheers Des
