It is on days such as this I am reminded of my life at sea.
The above picture brings the two principle engineering interests
of my life together. She is of a course a British Railways ferry.
I well remember calling the BR intercity arrow sign
'the arrows of indecision' will it be steam or will
it be diesel.
During my years at sea I had many Christmases on
duty and so I always remember those who are on
duty today at sea on ships all over the world.
I also remember all those whose Christmas will
today have been another working day, our hospitals and
many other essential services. So a merry Christmas to you all
at sea and ashore.
