I would be about eleven years old when this picture was taken.
I’m wearing a thin rubber suit my dad had made for me; he was
A foreman at the rubber works in Manchester.
I can remember some of the rubber sheeting was very thin
And had a strong smell of perfume because it had been
Originally fabricated to line the under sheeting of a babies
Cot’s to protect the mattress.
This was a little bit of Christmas, you can see the gold chain
Round my neck with a gold shark’s tooth hanging from it. I
Had it made up from a genuine tooth,and it cost me a fortune.
Well this little bit of Christmas I was robbed beat up pushed
In a ditch and left for dead. They took everything money,
Watch, belt. chain the lot and when I came round every insect
That lives in the jungle had bit me.
Johnny mac & Pete Broad ( sadly they have both passed away) were
Friends of mine for years,we all dived together. We travelled all the
Way round the country and dived through all the seasons, Scapa Flow
Being the trip of a life time,
