HMS Sirius Lost Oppos
Lost touch with an oppo' from the
Sirius? Send me the gory details and I'll put them up onto this page. Eventually
they'll be indexed by the search engines (Google, etc). Email webmaster@hmssirius.info
with your details and those of the oppo you seek. Entitle the email
"Lost oppos".
This is a manual process, so please be patient
while I find the time to update the site. NOTE - let me know if you change your
address - or you're wasting your time putting it up! And also, please let
me know when you are successful, so I know I'm not wasting my time and
bandwidth.
