Would be before 1972 as I joined it in Liverpool in January 1972, 1st trip as jun/eng , and sailed on it until December before handing over in Bombay to I think a Greek shipping company . Only had 4 weeks leave between the two trips as the chief eng. wanted the deep sea guys back on board for maintenance.
