Wonderful films.
How lucky we were to be at sea in those times, just before the boxes changed everything. Thanks for posting. |

Thanks for posting these wonderful films of the 'City of Agra'. I sailed with Ellermans 1962 - 67 and what a surprise to see the 'City of Bedford' clip. My first 'foreign going' as 3/O. Brought back great memories - never thought I see such film. The 'City of Agra' series also brought many memories of Hong Kong, India,Aden, Suez etc as they were in the 60s and how fortunate and privileged we were to visit places at that time. Now they are all totally unrecognisable and common destinations for holidays and cruises - we'd never have dreamt it possible in those days.
Looking forward to more, keep them coming and again, thank you for taking the time to post. Searock62 |

Hi Milton
I sailed with E&B as apprentice and 3/0 1962/67 and your films have brought great memories and shown things I never imagined I'd see again. Thanks for posting. Some smiles given today's H&S. Great days. Searock62 |
