Yes indeed.
Born the same year as my hero Prince Charles, but I'm a bit older, so he'd better show me some respect!

Ah you are still a young man then Ron.

Love the picture. I assume a Motor Gun Boat RN. Not with us now but a chap in Jersey here had one which he converted to a pleasure boat.

Mh thought it a Gun Boat. My father worked on the Rescue Launches on the Thames. He used to take
me on a Saturday, he was a carpenter & joiner, & was given the task of crawling up the bow to clear
all the dust & plane shavings.

Quite a guy he used to work late for the war effort. One night it was windy. The workshop was on
an island in the Thames. The dinghy went over & dad landed in the drink. The family giggled but
he did not see the fun in it. Well he did later

Yes quite a stock. I have posted in the diorama section my Afghanistan diorama/presentation. This shows all that I have been
