If you have a spare few minutes have a look at "Glenlyon Class to Liverpool Bay Class" #16.

Cheers.
Blue Flue were an excellent company, and I'm glad to have been a company man and trained by them but disillusionment set in when I was logged 'a day and a day' for being 15 minutes late turning to when I missed the launch to the buoys in Yokohama by literally less than 30 seconds.
Being logged two days pay for that offence, when I had never been late for work previously, really stung, and it was all down hill from there.
Bluies were good but I much preferred my time with Federal, who were a lot more laid back and easy going.
Regards Phil
