The last radio officer that sailed with Capt Harvie, John Tulloch and Davie Scott was Bill Irving, that was me. I could look out my old colour photos and one that shows, wives, prams on key side of John, Davie, wives and prams! Also, I have the silver triangular serviette ring with N of S Orkney and Shetland Shipping logo & No. 4 which was my seating arrangement at the table. If this is of interest to perhaps a maritime museum in Kirkwall, I would be happy to look them out and post accordingly, if details are emailed to me, Kind regards, Bill Irving
