Did you have a locker full of roaches?(no I dont mean the smoking kind) :roll: or a bowl full of weevils for breakfast.?Added nutrition maybe,but infestation on some ships was pretty bad.My first ship the Eagle in 64 had to be fumigated due the large amount of cockroaches.Everybody carried ronson lighters(high flame)whilst queueing for nosh to burn them off the bulkheads.Despite not keeping food in ones locker the buggers still managed to make themselves at home. 8O Weevils in the little cereal packets was also a problem.even though they were sealed.It was waiting for them to rise to the top of the milk and spoon them out before eating,mind you it took practice and you would never get them all and we got used to the ritual 8)
Of course we came across cockroaches ashore when dining out at such gourmet place as bugis street and the stalls in sembawng village at Singapore.But they were bigger and more likley to nick the spoon off the table rather than the mutton curry. :lol: Any thoughts :?:
