There are occasions when Google fails me and I have to resort to more archaic methods of finding things out. Such was the case late last week when I set about trying to find information on this topic. A Seaman book is a travel document which records when you join and leave boats. It is very useful for the taxman and allows you to get special fights. It is also very helpful when you are working towards Maritime qualifications or tickets as we like to call them.
Now I have the information I would like to impart the knowledge so in the future people do not have to go through the trauma of emailing somebody.

Hi, you couldn't possibly tell me what establishment send you that e-mail, and/or an email address. Or hyper-link with the form?
