”JOHNNY Geroudis is getting far too much coverage on this site,” writes Kevin Shea in a mail.

Kevin submitted this photo of him and “young Shezi” – this of course being his son Michael, who looks very young and protected under his dad’s wing, but is actually well into his twenties and not half as weak and innocent as he appears here.

When he’s not cavorting in the tropical waters of the Shea family’s favourite playground of Mauritius or supporting his father in Dubai, Michael works as Head of South African trading for Sportingbet.com in London.

Michael’s employer is offering evens about the pair opening up a beach pub on the island one day when Kevin Bartley’s third ship comes sailing in. Odds-on, however, about their stock being consumed lomg before they can sell anything to clients!
