Was in and out of the port o Newcastle dozens of times in the era 1953/56
when on the old Ropners Ocean boat "Firby" on charter on the Auzzie coast with coal and iron ore from Whyalla. Much has changed and I am considerably older!!!
I when on Google earth recently and hardly recognised the place. Carrington where we loaded coal and the steel works no more. Nobby's baech where I used to go swimming looked very inviting especially when we got dumped on with snow and freezing rain etc this weekend. Its supposed to be spring and accumuations of 9"
GLOBAL WARMING YEH !!!!!
