New to this site
Hi all
My name is Mike Stokes, I'm new to this site so please be gentle 
I attended Sea school in Gravesend May '76, remember that hot one?
I came across this site by accident and it looks like I'm going to enjoy visiting it.
I'm interested in finding friends from past. On leaving "sea school" I joined the Arcadia in sept (76) for a few trips which I thoroughly enjoyed, then the Canberra (world cruise '78).
Looking forward to hearing from anyone who remembers me.
Thanks for reading
Mike

Welcome
Hello Mike. A very warm welcome to our community here. Thanks for stopping by to introduce yourself. Yes I remember that 1976 summer. Came home from the gulf to get married and it was hotter here than out there You will hopefully get a lot of enjoyment out of the content here which is very varied, much the same as our membership.
