Norman Ruffell

Posted on Facebook by Brian Wakeham

The gentleman on the left is Norman Rufflell who was Chief Engineer on a few of the UC liners including the Braemar, Edinburgh and Reina del Mar.

The lady is my Grandmother. This was taken I think in the 40s/50s in Cape Town.

He was a very dapper gent - smoked a pipe.
