40) A SITAR MAESTRO IN THE OLD MAN'S CABIN!!

Sent in by Andrew "Scruggs" Fairgrieve - ex sparks - BI - af@aditel.btinternet.com

On board SS Rajula - a passenger ship with British India Steam Navigation Company

One day came an excited bellow from Captain Bill Howcroft's prom deck. "Scruggs, get up here now!"

A SITAR had arrived and he expected an immediate recital. I tuned it guitar fashion and it soon gave forth some tunes.

Fortunately Capt Howcroft only used it as an ornament, and refrained from singing
