Mary
Payne reports from Vancouver
for Radio London
It
was Mick Luvzit from Caroline North who started it all. Mick had enjoyed
our 2002 Offshore Reunion so much that when he heard Graham Webb was
going to be visiting Vancouver this summer, he decided to organise
the first North American event of its kind. Radio London and the Pirate
Radio Hall of Fame assisted with tracking down potential guests, while
Steve Young and Gord Cruse were recruited to handle the itinerary
and Mick's friend Adam came aboard as chauffeur.
The
event marked the 40th anniversary of the original Radio Caroline ship
Fredericia, sailing north to anchor off Ramsey Bay in the Isle
of Man, where she became home to Caroline North.
Wets
attending were Gord Cruse, Ben Healy, Mel Howard, John Kerr,
Lorne King, Mick Luvzit, Tony Prince, Bryan Vaughan, Graham Webb
and Steve Young
Other guests: Mary Payne, Kenny Tosh, Trish Young and Adam
Stations
represented: Radio Atlanta, Radio London, Caroline North and South,
Radio City, Radio Scotland (and we mustn't forget the non-watery Radio
Luxembourg, Kenny Everett's 'Station on the Stairs'!)
Everyone wore the pirate badges shown above!
