Led Zeppelin was my band of 69.Well Cream had turned sour.
Alan Stimpson was Ch Cook followed by Bernie Harwin from Hull. Bobby Roach from Cornwall was 2nd Cook and life and sole of the party. We had a few. Gerald Rockingham Walsh (Lucky) was crew messman for a while. I paid off in Gothenbourg and slept on the airport deck. I salied with Alan Edwards a few years later on the Drupa. Seem to remember a lot of Johnny Cash got played. San Quentin & Folsom Prison.
It wasn't all music & beer, some of us got a suntan as well. |

I sailed on the Megara in 1969, after five days in Rotterdam, waiting on weather.I remember Brian Perry, Alan Edwards. I think Jock Nichol was the CPO.I was galley boy on the mighty Meg. Have a few choice photos from cabin parties. What a trip |
