Middlesex

Hard to read the name on the stern, but I would say MIDDLESEX. Sister is CORNWALL.

Federal Lines.

Stephen

yes I would agree on Middlesex. Plainly a Federal boat

Yes certainly 'Middlesex'

(Are we allowed to say that word these days... as there seems to be so many different sexes around, not just male and female and 'middle sex' but so many others !)

John Alexander Chief Engineer in Federal's m.v. ESSEX... I was with him in SCOTSPARK 1971. Anyhow, he told me ESSEX was nicknamed "EASY SEX" !!!!

Reminds me of the old joke, Graham: There is an Essex, Sussex and Wessex, well, why would anyone want to live Nosex!

feature in your Shaft Tunnel vocabulary? Whatever, 360 or 0 degrees ('True') obviates adjustment

That's more than enough 'tongue in cheeking' as the actress said to the Bishop ~ or was it to the Chief
