    a comfortable berth and settle in.I was at sea before
    you,1952-59,but Im sure that there are people out
    here that will know your ships,and perhaps may even
    know you>Its a small world??

    Hi Del.
    Welcome to the site. You will find that you will get quite a few misses on ships you were on, blokes on her before you or after you left, and in that as you will see by the posts blokes get to remembering someone who was there at the same time etc, which brings back the memories. Read the old posts, maybe someone you knew posted awhile ago. Anyway enjoy this great site the best there is.
    Cheers Des
