Remember Lofty Farthing, I spoke with him prior to Christmas, he is alive and well living in Maidstone.

I never thought that I was widely known in the Met branch, as I said to Gill & Charlie - I was mainly out of the loop never having been drafted to Culdee or Northwood as ships company. Most lads I knew thought I must be a "Bombhead" Chockhead or an AE as I didn't fit the accepted norm of a Met man. Even on a Fleet Air Arm Gun Crew reunion Taff Morgan said to me that no Met had ever made Gun Crew until I pointed out that Arnie Pearson, me, Andy Hales and Taff Hadland had made it!! I spent my time at sea or at Lee with a brief sojourn at Brawdy and loved most of it except for Portland and Drake, still you cannot win then all! Just for the count, after leaving Culdrose off course the stations I was drafted to were Portland, Lee, Brawdy Sembewang (with 815 and 848 sqdns) Terror for 3 weeks before flying home after coming out from BMH and the ships I served on were HMS Dalrymple, Ark Royal, London & Albion. Happy days for the most part, Hope you're keeping well. Cheers G. Hallo Mr Gillett,

The missing names are Ken Salisbury, Ray Haynes and Tony Evenden. Ray picked his Chiefs rate up and his place was taken by Roy "Lofty" Barrowclough. All those years ago, nearly 50! Where have they all gone? Hope you're well and fighting fit The very best to you and yours G. Hallo Pete Rees,
