  • Sweepers Question

    Did the white woolly puleys come free with sweepers.

    they seem to have been the ultimate in Naval Gucci Kit at the time. Bit Like the Blue 'Wog' jackets had on her 1986 Leb Trip..

    Any more NS gucci kit out there?

          yes they were part of the deck kit.. we had them on grainne and some bright spark sent them away to the wrong laundry they were probably washed at 1000 degrees so we got them back about the size of baby grows... it was the same with the sleeping bags we got.. then along came the blue rehab foul weather gear we thought we were in heaven ...... to think of what they have now..

                  It looks like someone bought a job lot off Pinewood Studios after they made "In which we serve" and they threw it the "Sons of the Desert" stuff for free

                      Ha, the Devil's Yacht overseas, nice one!

                      Who are the boys in the pics? I only recognise Mick Boyle () in the white ice cream man gear. Feck me, is that EPNS with him?

                        Yes that is EPNS. The other guy on the key wall, with the fez, was S/CPO Seamus Dalton, from Waterford Slua M. Taken in Cyprus.
