   I was at school at Campbeltown in 1958 and lived in a farm on the road to Macrihanish.

   The Queen visited the town in the summer and everyone came to see her.   After she had gone me and my pals went to the pier and looked at a puffer.   It was bringing a load of coal and the captain let us look around it and gave us all a wee bit of coal to prove to our folks that we had been on the boat.

   Its a long shot but do you know what puffer it was.   Jimmy
