Hi Paul
Thank you for dropping me a message,I wish you and yours all best wishes for the festive season.may you all live long and prosper. The time we all spent in training all those years ago made us friends for life (you never forget) the trials we went through and the satisfaction of coming out the other end I only saw "Soapy" once afterwards in Portsmouth I believe We chatted for a good while, had a meal together,+ parted as good friends. "Soapy" ,is of course the name given to all named Watson. I am pleased to hear he married + had children Perhaps you could bring me up -to- date with his life after the R N. (I am bobbromley1@ outlook.com) and live in Hastings in East Sussex Regards Bob Bromley

Hello Bob, this is my Dad in the picture, he sadly passed away in 2014, I would love to hear any stories or memories you may have of your time in the navy together if you are prepared to share them, hope you are keeping well
Regards
Paul Watson
