Its the FA cup today and I didnt get tickets as i didnt know if i could make it, I'm hoping to go on Tuesday night.

[jimmywizz]

got to say you lads have posted some great photos in here =D>

Stephenson Clarke, did they operate the coal carriers up and down the east coast ?
I've probably seen them many times but cannot remember any names of the vessels.
Did they have a black funnel with a silver band around it ?

Here's the Frederick John Evans on which my dad sailed.

And the Fireside which also did the East Coast run.

Pooter, these are great pictures. Thanks for posting them.
Have you got more ship photo's ? I'm not asking you to post them all, just curious that's all.
I've got a personal interest in BP, Bank Line, Safmarine, Zapata Marine and anything photographed in the Tyne.

Pilot, in Pooters first photo, I reckon we should be able to remember a ship called Jonny Evans....

[Pilot]

yes i remember jonny and from my apprentice days i remember the Frederick John Evans too.

Yes, you're quite right, they've got a massive collection of stuff to enjoy there.
I just thought it was worth asking as sometimes we get to see some 'new' photo's.
A good example is some of the stuff you've posted recently. I've really enjoyed these photo's.

if you mean the one's on the Tyne there are 251 all together and your welcome to a cd with them on

Are you offering a CD with all the Tyne shipping photo's ?
If so, then that's very generous of you. How do I get them ?
If not, then I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

[Pilot]

Yes you would be welcome to them....but i would need an address....maybe you could send a private message.....i will destroy the address as soon as i post the cd.

[baldy.smith]

.i will destroy the address as soon as i post the cd.

Pass it on to me first, it will go into my secret spy files.

Thanks Pilot, I've just sent you a PM about the possibility of using zip files via email or skype.

Please advise accordingly, thanks.

I have a few more that my dad served on and I'll post some of them. I got some of them from the Ships Nostalgia site.

You lads are doing a great job coming up with these pics of life on the Tyne.

I remember one or two things shown, especially the older stuff.

Well done lad's keep it up. =D> =D> =D>

[Pooter]

One of the first ships my dad was on was this one.
