Willie Walker (PWSTS 1963) is still at sea. He has lost contact with Frank Price (PWSTS 1963) from BrisbaneAustralia. His email address doesnt appear to work anymore. If anyone is in contact with Frank please pass on Willies phone number 07787 748097.
Cheers Wiggy. This is what Frank's sent for his profile:
I attended the PWSTS in 1963, I think I started in July, I was one of the Kiwi's there that year.
I currently live in Brisbane (Australia) and have done so for the last 25 years. The last UK ship I sailed on was the MV Turakina and I paid off in Tokyo in 1966 and returned to NZ and continued at sea for a further 2 years before coming ashore.
I spent the next 27 years in retail both in NZ and Australia and I am currently working in The I.T. industry. I have 4 children aged from 35 to 22 years and only 1 grandchild.
I would like to catch up with Willie Walker from the Isle of Mull who I sailed with on the Turakina and was also a pupil at PWSTS about a year after me.
My email address is naenaeboy@ourbrisbane.com and I would like to hear from anyone who knew me at the school.
Wiggy can I ask a favour please mate? Could you please ring the one above and, if its him, pass on the message from Willie Walker. Plus if possible, obtain an email address? - Many thanks
I am following this one with much interest. It looks like it could be a long shot. However if it pays off it will most certainly be down to Andy, Michael and the PWSTS. (also any other lads that have helped).
It would be nice to start the new year off with two guys meeting up after such a long time. So I send you some of 'Bob's good luck' (keeps me out of jail!).
