Many, many years early 70’s I was on board HMS Yarmouth as a sparker. We were in
communications with HMNZS Waikato often and I got talking over the ether to a couple
of your comms lads called the King brothers. I was invited on board when alongside
in Singapore and they both got me rather inebriated such so I fell down my hatch ladder
and still have the scars to show. We then had a few runs ashore and had a couple of
altercations with Aussie sailors in Sambewang.
Great times, just thought I’d pass them on and Thank the King brothers for the
good times we had.
Regards Geoff (Fez) Parker
