Hi, is it Ian?
I was also D/A in Shell from '57 50 '61, including a year (59) in the Eastern Fleet. My ships were: Trigonosemus, Haustellum (best one), Hemisinus, Thaumastus, Nassarius, Diplodon, Nicania, Harpula, Vibex and finally Partula. Did we ever meet, sail together? I left Shell in 61 hoping to get on the Ship Canal as an Apprentice Pilot/Quartermaster, but it didn't happen. Finally ended up in computers as a Programmer in the early days. My health condition with "Tankeritis" was a great boon as we were all mad in those days! Anyway it is good to know that some of us from the Golden Days are still going strong.
Cheers , and keep away from any noxious virus.
