”Swing the Light and tell me tall tales of the salty sea, of foreign shores and ports of call as experienced by me.”
Story telling at sea is an art form going back millennia and here are the stories I have entertained people with for decades. These are my memories of my time in the Royal Navy in the 1970s - including why my mate has a tattoo of red lips, why I ‘borrowed’ a car, how I missed an orgy and how I lost the Cod War. Read about my adventures in the Caribbean, the East coast of the USA and the Mediterranean.
