Re: Clive Fronks.
Thanks Clive hope you get some replies!
Can you put your details on the Crew List as well please!
Question and not being funny but is the Surname spelt correctly here (Fronks or should it be Franks ??)
Possibly a Typo Error on Registration ?? Cheers
And were you Born at Eton 1940 ??
As said just checking!

Re: Clive Fronks.
HERE IS THE CLUTHA RIVER.
I did a five month trip on her and then paid off in Dry Dock in Falmouth, she was a good job on deck.

Re: Clive Fronks.
Hi there who is asking I believe I can guess one of four of classmates in
R S N C which I can possibly narrow down to two either Bill
Bob Palmer perhaps Mike Wilson remembers me one term ahead of me
I think but Corrientes is the give away Bob or Bill please reply this is obviously very interesting I used to go to see Mr Sleeman Capt Rose and
Fred Ball who asked me to play all the calls so he could record the calls
for future buglers I used to go for a pint with Mr Sleeman and Mr Ball
