Hi Scott do you think Gordon could let me have some copies of the lads on board the ship ? I live in Burton on trent not to far from Lichfield I thought he was living in Rugeley if he is agreeable I could let Eliott McKenzies wife Rae in Ardrossan have them as her children have never seen any of their fathers school photos

we saw but it was a great day out and then the fishing trawler,

This was the first time I had used a camera,and it had lain in a drawer for years soI was lucky even to have taken these.The cruise these were taken on went to Copenhagen,Oslo,Bergen,and Hamburg,and the crossing of the North Sea was dreadful.When I came off that ship I swore I would never board another one in my lifetime,luckily my wife had very persuasive charms and have been on a few since(and with decent cameras).
