NEW BOOK FEATURING THE QE2 1970 -1974
« on: Sep 02, 2024, 12:17 PM »
HELLO FELLOW FORUM READERS
MY NAME IS MARTIN HIGNELL , I SERVED ON THE GRAND OLD LADY OF THE SEA 1970-1974 WORKING IN THE KITCHEN RISING TO RANK OF CHEF DE POISSON OR HEAD OF FISH AS IT WAS CALLED. I DECIDED TO WRITE A BOOK ABOUT MY EARLY LIFE AND MY TIME ON THE QE2 WHEN THE PANDEMIC STRUCK AND WE WERE ALL UNDER LOCKDOWN. THE BOOK IS CALLED "UNCLE ALBERT" AND IS CURRENTLY IN PRODUCTION WITH THE PUBLISHERS. I WILL ANNOUNCE ITS LAUNCH HOPEFULLY IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK LYNDA BRADFORD FOR ALL HER HELP AND ADVICE, ALSO GEORGE C GRIFFITHS FOR ALLOWING TO USE TWO OF HIS WONDERFUL PHOTOGRAPHS FOR THE FRONT AND BACK COVER.
