Seamen! where are they?
« on: Thursday 09 June 05 22:13 BST (UK) »
We all get frustrated trying to find info on our guys jumping ship - not doing the paperwork etc -  this is a pretty interesting site -  though it's pretty modern - it might give you ideas of what to look for.........

Thanks for that info. Muffin.   Maybe it was only a temporary 'broken'  :)

A tip for everybody: I clicked on the link now, and nothing happened,
or rather, nothing seemed to happen, I just got a new browser tab 'unknown'. 

But I then discoverd that the .pdf file had been downloaded to my computer and I was able to open it with Foxit.

Foxit is a pdf reader, also free, which loads in seconds, without saying "There are now updates available", etc, etc.

download it here:  http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php#
well worth doing, if you work with pdf a lot
