G'day Barry I'd like to add my welcome as an exSS&A man in catering.I'm sure you will find lots to inform and enjoy here mate. Oh mine was the "GOTHIC" a mighty fine vessel, in which I enjoyed three terrific trips with chief steward Fearing a wise and clever man.Best regards Neil "Mort" Morton.

There passes to and fro
Where the Ghostly Iceberg Travels
Or the spicy trade winds blow
A gaudy piece of bunting,a royal ruddy rag
The blossom of the Ocean Lanes
