Yes condolances to the family, sailed with him many times on the GTV's, will always remember the complaints about his cold meats, "spam & corned beef", could we not have a change, so he agreed and the next nights menu read "corned beef & spam". Who else remembers him standing at the end of the bar saying "no I'll just have a 1/2 pint, but put me down for a pint, I can't drink pints like you engineers", but he seemed to to have 3 half pints for our pint !! Hope he had a good retirement before his final drydock
