Nellie McGee

Nellie McGee Peterhead Steam Drifter. Very young GeeBee aboard with Uncle Billy Buchan. What a start in life .. not sitting gawking at TV screen, watching a pile o' trash! Gulls, herring, smell of tar, smoke, hiss of steam, ships' whistles. Among the finest of men. A real heritage!!

    Will, I was born 31/3/48 so I must've been no more than 2 or 3. Poss. 1950, def. not later than '51.
    Just for the record .. plenty on the sides .. a few wisps on top. Very proud of them. If I shaved them off, I'd be like Friar Tuck!!!
