Enjoyed looking at the Stag Line exhibition. Although I never sailed on the Photinia, really enjoyed the 26 minute film about the cable laying between North & South Island, NZ. That alone was well worth the trip up from North Yorkshire.

Hi everyone,just saw this about Stag Line.Does anyone remember my Father in law,a Chief Stwd called John Groves,originally from Tiger Bay Cardiff but married and settled in Hull (passed away in the early 90's) Think he was on the Begonia and Xinnia.Love to hear any old yarns- he was a character.His wife and daughters travelled with him in the school hols i've heard and had a great time with crew and officers.....Regards

I sailed with John a number of times, on the Camellia and Zinnia. Great bloke and a real character. May have some photos, will post if I can find them.
