    From January to June 1976 I was attending courses then standing by the fitting out of the City of Winchester at Bremer Vulkan at Vegasak.

    Whilst standing by the fitting out of the City of Winchester I was at the launch of the City of York and attended the before and after launch dinners/functions.

    Hi Bill

    Do you know of any other ex Ellerman guys, I was an engineer with them in the 60's and my first ship was the City of Winchester ( the old one). Would be nice to catch up with anyone as I now live in NZ coming back to the old country for a holidy next year.


    Regards
    Matt Wilkinson
