I follow Jim the brush on Facebook and his last post there was in March. I wished him happy birthday in June but there was no response. I do hope he is keeping well.

Welcome back Ch Tel pleased that you are still able to join us.
Its a sad fact Ivor, that from the 72 pages of members, once you scroll past the fourth page of them, none of them have made any posts on the Forum.
However, I am sure that some of them look in from time to time to catch up on Naval news.

Whilst on the subject I have just heard that Ivor Rothewell has Crost the Bar.
As far as I know he was one of the first Boys to return to Ganges after WW II from St. Georges and was in one of the first classes of Sparkers.
Served in Vigo in early 50s and went into Subs.
Eventually became a Lt. Cdr. (C) ending up in RAN.
Last I heard he was living in Melbourne or Adelaide.

Sorry to hear about Ivor Rothwell. I came across the letter about him from 2011
