Trumps visit.

[happy daze john in oz]

John did or do the Japanese not have an employment policy (from the cradle to the grave?) Employers more or less guaranteed workers a job for life?

No one in Japan is unemployed. All are found work of some sort, and all workers be they low paid or executives are regarded as part of the community and of worth.

Could do with taking a leaf out of there book then John, Let's face there is always something to do , taking pride in your own community for a start. It is all about mind set.

There was a time when England was seen as a very warm and welcoming nation, tolerant and peaceful.
Now it has changed and not for the better, the Trump visit shows how some of the people are being lead by the nose by a group of persons from the looney left.
People who think the world owes them something, not interested in democracy any more, only want to make the place worse not better.
Leaders who are in positions of trust betraying that for their own personal gains.
England is no longer the place I grew up in, gone are the real people replaced by those from overseas who see the country as a source of income and benefits without any input from them.
To carry on the way they are over the visit of a national duly elected leader is despicable.

I do hope some of the harsh words on site are not a reflection of how the nation is changing, as seamen we were a trusted happy group, yes we had differences byt we never stooped to slaging each other off such as is now occurring. Lads pull your heads in before they get chopped off.

Funny how we all seem to remember discharge book numbers I found my first book but can't find the other two for love no money but still remember the number as well as remembering the number for my certificates what usless information we carry around in our heads

Rob you found your 1st book but cant find 2 others , I have my Norwegian book + 2 other British books R850909 .But maybe someone can help , my first book was probably put ashore in Australia when I jumped the Sugar Importer in Brisbane, after stowing away to New Zealand on the Port New Plymouth ,I eventually worked my way back home on the Cumberland , with a paper discharge . How would I get my first book or ships entered in it back ???

there is a place were you can get an official paper copy of your ships.....i used it a few years ago ......after i skinned out in wallaroo my book was back in shields when i had my committee.......the place i got my paper copy from was i believe something to do with a london adress and a guild hall ...it later arrived via cardiff ......someone will have the correct address.....whoops sorry the london address was for voyage cards .....the other for list of ships was from cardiff........regards cappy
