Durban in summer. Ship Alongside, open to Visitors. Dozens of Teenage girls, some with Parents, come aboard. It's been decided that the For'd Engine Room has the easiest, straight access, via a 15ft ladder. YES, it meant having to Change into Tropical Gear, but the numbers of Stokers who VOLUNTEERED to Act as Guides and stand at the base of that ladder ! And then there was the leaning right over the waist-high Guard Rails to tell the tale of the Golden Rivet supposed to be in the Bilge ! You would NOT be surprised what some Girls felt obliged NOT to wear ! And did their Mothers and Fathers actually know ?
