Many years ago, before I met him, he went to sea, working on a fishing trawler out of Aberdeen. He only lasted the one voyage of about a week. He was really seasick and never went again.
Your story made me smile Gillian but it's really not funny. I guess they didn't have stugeron back then. I would never go on a boat without taking it first. A lovely photo of Jim, nice background.
Oh I know how he feels! When we used to go on the ferry on our way back to Berlin, I used to take travel sickness tablets & we used to book a cabin & have a night crossing, so we could go to sleep!
