    Default Back on site again after bit of time away.

    Thought it was time to check in again.

    I left 'Vindi' on December 1964 and sailed on these ships..

    Braemar Castle (galley rat, 2 trips)
    Aragon (Pursers dogsbody 1st class Saloon boy, 1 trip)
    Kenya Castle (Saloon boy, 1 trip)
    Port Albany (Pantry boy, 1 trip)
    Brasil Star (2 trips, Steward)
    Port Alfred (Engineers steward, 1 trip)

    Came ashore in 1967. Couldn't get over sea sickness! Great times though.

    Nice to be back.

    Jeff, Facebook is bad enough but COPD is not nice at all.
    Have a sister in law with it, a nurse and heavy smoker.
    Hope you have it under control now.
    Hang in there, you will be fine.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
