Learning To Row The Jolly Boat

A Memory of Greenhithe.

As a trainee catering rating we used to bring the stores aboard by boat, rowing from the jetty to the ship - no mean feat considering how strong the currents were, if the tide was ebbing, the currents were exceptionally strong. I made a few new mates and especially remember going to the Isle of Sheppey with Gary Johnson to meet his family, I remember that well.
