Adventures on and off the High Seas.

You would understand what that sort of life is like then, few do, thinking the tales are a work of fiction, rather than I true life event.
When people say, "worse things happen at sea", boy, are they right...

Indeed. They sound like contrived tales of fiction when in fact that we're probably even worse. It has been a strange and eventful life but I wouldn't have had it any other way.

I have always said if I died tomorrow I would die a happy man having seen and done more than I could have ever envisaged from my Yorkshire mining community upbringing.

Durban jail does have a more exotic ring than Doncaster nick

And the music was much better in those days, in my opinion

I would probably disagree here as there has been great music throughout every era.

Saying that I do have a love for punk and while at sea in the 70's as a cadet I ended up playing a couple of songs on stage with a band in Auckland. Great night great memories. No taxi curtosy of the local police so must have been sensible at the same time.
