My dad's cousin, he was. I only met him a couple of times but he seemed a very nice bloke, (my dad says he was really really sound). Hard to imagine him being a naval officer when you saw him in cords and a sweater!
I hardly remember the amazing bald/flyaway hairdo in that photo of him just after they abandoned the Shef.

Was hes called Dyke or something?
