BACK TO NEWSLETTER 2000 CONTENTS
Dear Editor,
A few notes for this years newsletter.
I have had an interesting year after attending the AGM last January and the Lamb and Flag at the beginning of September with Messrs Dow,
Beglarbegi, Langlois, Sibal, John Field and few others that I cannot remember.
I currently reside in Miami with Liz my German wife and two kids. Rob Tally, 1973-1978,
dropped in with a parachute from Rio earlier this year after finding me in the phone book! I work for Apollo Ship
Chandlers Inc which is a catering company that supplies Cruise Ships. We currently have 16 ships, Celebrity and
Renaissance cruises, and over 6,000 shipboard employees. We have an agent in London and thus any 'Young' OCs
with a hospitality background can contact liz@cti-usa.com to set up an appointment in London in case they are
looking for work.
My other hobby is running our own apartment business on South Beach in Miami

We would be delighted to assist any OCs and give them a great rate.
Finally I ended up here after taking a sailboat with Arun Sibal(73-78), back in 1982 from Tenerife to Barbados via
Dakar, Senegal. We both worked on cruise ships and after ten years onboard decided to settle in Miami. Over the
years quite a few OCs have been out here and even managed to get Neal Sibal, 1975-1979, out here for my 40th
birthday. It s not a bad life!
Regards
Steve Furness (73-78)
