During my Twin Pioneer conversion with 78sqn in August 1959 we lost an engine on the way into Kamaran and had to night stop. HM's reprepresentitive was a real Peter Sellers type who put us up in a disused bungalow next the beach. Dimitri, the Greek owner of the only shop on the island, kept us supplied with copious amounts of beer and a good night was had by all. We were rescued the next day and the engine change was completed the following week.
