Re: Living on a Container Ship
Hi Vernon
very interesting and enjoyable.
But not one British ship in sight.
I did notice it was a German ship on the same trading route that had in Blue Funnel, Glen Line, Shire Line, China Nav and many others, now all gone and the foreign flag have taken over, What the hell happened to all our ships and ship owners
We had it all and lost it. Sad.
I enjoyed it tho`.
Cheers
Brian.
