When I went for a job interview at HMS Vulcan, Dounraey it was Andy Keddy who was one of the interviewers. Eddie Latcham also had a staff job with Vulcan, think it was at Scapa House where the young navy officers stayed. Andy made a lovely big dolls house that my granny o'the Glebe bought for me and I still have it to this day.
