    Does this old photo evoke a few memories? 6.30 of a morning ,the daymen rigged up in seaboots for the morning wash down.We'd start on the fiddley and work our way down to the main deck. One hoseman, the rest of us with yard brushes and holystones ,followed by the leading hand with a squeegee. You could eat your dinner off those decks on the Blueys.By the time we were down it was time for breakfast,and that's another story!!
    Cheers,
