Had previously signed in old guestbook, but have
new e mail address. Anyone able to send me any
photos of Grenville maiden voyage, Leeuwin '73
or Ardrossan '74/75. Many thanks to Willie
Mcfarlane and John Trotter in Brisbane for
previous correspondence, but unfortunately have
lost your e mail addresses. Anyone remember the
cook on the Leeuwin in '73 or Ardrossan '74/75,
an Irish guy from Rialto in Dublin called Tom.
If anyone has his e mail address or even if you
are reading this yourself Tom, could you get in
touch. |

Sailed with SSM from 1974 until "The Last Ship"
Baron Kinnaird in 1986.
I am currently landscape gardening and open to
offers of alternative employment.
I am taking advantage of JD's computer to wish
all the best to Frank Taylor, Peter Newton,
(does anyone have Peter's address) Rubber Man,
Nick Ince, Duggie Campbell and all former
shipmates.
Still partial to the odd tipple but not like the
old days. The wages earned from landscape
gardening don't allow it. |

My Dad, Brian Denmark, spent many years as
chief engineer working for SSM. In 1972 when I
was 6, I was lucky enough to spend 7 months at
sea with him, most of it in the engine room. It
was a fantastic experience, one that I will
never forget. Sadly my dad died in 1994. It
would be great to hear from anyone who sailed
with him. |
