Just a wee bit of Interest
For those who served on the good old UCL, here is a small bit of info, which i know all will recall, wether you did the Mail Run only, or was lucky enough to also do the Round African Runs as i did .
Great times, good Ports of call and some wild times with it all.
Cheers

Re: Just a wee bit of Interest
Hi Vernon. I never had any dealings with UCL. My late sister had a friend who had a voyage on the Rhodesia Castle away back in the sixties. When told I had been in the Merchant Navy, she dug out the voyage programme to give to me as it may be of interest.

Re: Just a wee bit of Interest
I have about 30 of similar UCL menus all in good condition.
Many with last night dinner as the one shown, and one from the Windsor on voyage 4 last night dinner tourist gallop menu.
Happy daze John in Oz.
