George and I spent hundreds of hours working together when we worked at the old timaru harbour board,, sometimes under wharves or up the top of light towers,, we knew each other really well,, we have lost touch over the last 20 years or so,, so at least we have fond memories,,these should be treasured, I was really saddened by his passing,, just remember the good times folks,, George would have wanted a smile,, kind regards dusty miller
