Hello Gordon,
I am not really within courting distance :-)
I live 20 kms out of Braidwood.
Is there any mention of the SHELTRUM family in the book?
Thanks for the offer.
Joy

I have , HAGAN Gerald, Dry Docking, 1983, 135pp. It was sent to me
by my good cousin, Bill.

If you are within reasonable contact distance (?more than the
courting, walking distance of C18 rural NFK), perhaps we could
arrange a viewing of the book.
