Life on a Pop Radio ship For the d.j.'s at sea life goes in three-week cycles—two weeks on the ship and a week on shore. Life on the vessels is fairly ordered, too, with the d.j.'s working their daily stints, relaxing with TV or answering the 3,000-5,000 letters they can expect to receive in a week. Each ship has a captain plus crew who mix in with the disc spinners and eat with them in the galley. Beer and cigarettes cost those on board very little and they are provided with newspapers and magazines by the supply tenders which come out to the ships regularly each week. The d.j.'s tend to make their firmest friendships among each other as it is very difficult to keep up with those on land when they are only there one out of every three weeks. But to compensate for this--and the storms and restrictions--each d.j. has the satisfaction of his own show . . . and of knowing that millions of people are listening to him every day.	1 Radio London--one of the leading Pop Pirates.

4 On the air: Tony Windsor advertising baked beans.	5 Relaxing when a show is over (d.j.'s from left to right): John Edward, Duncan Johnson and Ed Stewart with Dave Dennis seated.
