This was the
1982 annual Engineering "Goat Curry" lunch served by the
Pakistani crew after Ramadan. It's amazing how they served us considering
they were starving after a couple of weeks of starvation. But, to this
day, I wonder what the hell was in that curry. No part of the Goat went to
waste!

Another picture
of the post Ramadan curry lunch served on the IP Wardroom deck. Nick
Morrow (CEO) and Marcus James (Senior 2EO) to his left.
Phil recalls;
I have great
memories of Nick Morrow. He was the gentle giant, always nice to everyone.
We decided to take the speed boat for our usual outing in Acapulco. We tied it up while going for a beer (or two) on the beach only to find the boat missing when we returned. Crash didn't tie it down correctly. We laughed our asses off so much. Those were the days.

Mike Gill (4EO), Phil Archer (4EO) and Chris Adams (3EO).
I can't
remember the occasion, but it must have been someone's Birthday, maybe
Dennis Tanner. Great picture in the IP Wardroom.

Alison
Lewis
(Nurse) (great gal), ?? (Nurse) (another great gal), Peter Croucher (Asst
Cruise Director) (hey Croucher, did you ever find your shorts on the flag
mast?) and who else but Joy Casaru.
Tim
Lees has kindly named Alison Lewis, and remembers the other nurse being
cuddled by Croucher but can't remember her name. He agrees with Phil that
she was a great girl.
After
working as a Hospital Engineer for 10 years post sea with 1500 nurses I
can assure you from personal experience that ALL nurses are phenomenal
people and a breed all on their own and I mean that with all due respect.
