HMS JAGUAR
Comments:
Iremember Jaguar when she was on the Cape Station at Simon's Town. At the time,I was doing my national service in the SAN,serving in SAS VRYSTAAT a Type 15 frigate as part of the TAS division.
Those were good years with much friendly rivalry and good fellowship. "Snoekie" (Simon's Town) still occasionally sees the white ensign and the hospitality is as good as ever.
Yours Aye
Peter

Comments:
i was on aberford on trip to denmark kiel canal etc back through caladonian canal can you remember ma s kitchen sunday nights i left and spent the next 9 years in submarines happy days why did we leave
Guestbook Administrator's Comment:
Hi Bill.
Afraid the memory is on it's way out these day, but I do remember the trip though the Keil Kanal and the visit to Copenhage, What a great run ashore! The Caledonian Canal was something else! Even is we had to operate the locks our selves - with a little help from tourists.
I als remember Ma's Kitchen on a Sunday nights. We had some good times there too. Like you, I went on to submarines but didn't last long as I had sinus problems and all these years later, what is it 50? I am still having sinus troubles.
No, I wish I had stayed in, even if I went into the Merchant after my service.

Wisbech Sunday Market
Comments:
I am trying to confirm whether or not the Sunday Market at Wisbech is on for tomorrow as usual as my wife wishes to take me there tomorrow morning?
I am a pensioner and have lived in Cambridgeshire since 1965 (the placee I first went to was then in Huntingdonshire when I came over here from Northamptonshire to join the police.)
I was a keen gardener in my earlier years (I'm now 71 but still do a little despite my arthritis!)
I retired from the police in 1991 following an on duty accident and finally retired in 2007 from a business I ran for 12 years.
