A big welcome aboard to Jim Thompson – someone else that I never saw after Leeuwin.

Hi Max Hasson,
Sorry it has taken so long for me to reply to you. Yes I remember you and all that you have siad and thank you very much for reminding me about the scab. Looking forward to seeing you. You said you were chating to Mick Andrews. Do you know if he’ll be at the reunion? if not do you have a contact number or email address for him.
Regards
Jim
Max – it is done!
You are right about not being far from the water – we have an onsite van/ annex at Eden (3 hours from here) on Twofold Bay where I am captain of “Hooked”, my 4.5 M Allycraft.

Hi Jim Thompson,
I remember you from our Aussie Rules side, I have a full size photo of the footy side, my cousin rescued it from the Drill Hall before Navy moved out! I will bring it to the reunion next year. Do you remember playing footy at North Fremantle Oval the same week we had all our needles, we couldn’t lift one arm and the scab used to come off when you jumper rubbed it! The opposition thought we were all wimps! I had a good chat with Micky Andrews when we organised a 40th reunion here in the West.
For Farmer, I currently live in Shoalwater, a suburb near Rockingham, we old matelos can’t move far from the water!
Regards
Max Hasson
P.S. For Pete Retallick, Is this the year of the Dragons?
