    50 years ago to the day 3rd. Jan 1961 I joined the m.v. "Somme" in Manchester. She was a small coaster running from Manchester/Liverpool to Channel Islands/Rouen and Paris. I spent the whole of 1961 on this little ship as AB and Mate. One of the best ships that I sailed on.

    Here are a couple of photos of her. The black and white one was taken in the locks at Bougival near Paris. She is shown with masts down, funnel off and wheelhouse collapsed to navigate the low bridges.
