    one oh the bonniest looking boats built for port seton.is that heckle on the deck
    Him and Cookie by the look o it.
    looking at the whale makeing sure it wis open
    Definitely wouldn't get the skipper in the whale. His father once told me a story about a bloke he was talking to he asked him what boat he was of and when he told him he said I know Ian fine had many a sesh wi him in the Granton Tap Johns reply was u doggon liar hes my son and hes never been in a pub in his life.
    iam sure the crew before cookie and heckle were chockles and sarge just after the veronica was sold they must have went to work on the lahroi.dont think they drank either
    Chockles never drank ha ha he was never on the Veronica either .Few crews on the LH 18 before them . She started at the seine net wi Dundbar and FiSHEROW crew.
    Heckle left the Veronica LH 45 when he was 16.
    iam sure he was on the veronica right at the end .he finished up working wi tommy little before he retired on the olive branch
    Finished up on the Speedwell wi Ian they couldn't get used to her after the tin boats wi high rails.Tied her up and she was sold to Alistair Moodie.Heckle started his seatime in the Veronica.  Sunshine,  Girl Ann.LAI Ha ROI.finished wi Ian wasn't in many more.Little took the Amaranth after OB was scrapped.
    was talking about chockles on the veronica and olive branch.he wis also wi peter greig on the star oh faith,got our lines crossed billy sorry
