Just saying hello
Hello everyone finally got around to saying it a last. Was only at sea for just over 6 years but those times have stayed with me and I still look back with great fondness. Worked hard but we all played hard to. I was with Cunard at first on the Scythia and Servia plus a work by in Liverpool for Harrison's then joined bp which was my final company. Left due to growing family, shame now I am 53 I can not up sticks and do it all again mind you I do not think I could last the pace now lol
So if there is any one out there who recalls me and could help me fill in some gaps I would be Happy to here from you
Thanks
Bob

Re: Just saying hello
Hello Robert
Thank you for your post and a hearty Welcome to the site!
although you have mentioned a few Ships, may I ask if you would also please post your full details on our Crew list! Thank!
No matter how long one was at Sea ,some short and some long stay, we are all one and the same!
I had very short service due to unforeseen circumstances, but the time I did have at Sea with the Lads I got to meet and like it was a time that I will never forget!
Enjoy your say here with us all!
Cheers
