I wasnt able to get any pictures of the Amadea..it came in in the dark and left in the dark. I think the ships are lingering late into the night much more, presumably to avoid the horrid weather. Cant be much fun cruising at the moment for the passengers.
Yes Ian indeed...the staff have to go as well to Sothampton. Very unfortinate - thats a long day you mention there for your step dad.
Yes definitely was a tug day Scotchie. We lost a call too yesterday as mentioned, when the Black Watch couldnt make it in.
I have added a positive story though today to the frontpage ...The Marina has just had its 30,000th passenger in Dover. Have added a couple of pictures to the frontpage.
The pic above shows the channel right now LIVE as it were...
Still looking turbulent and menacing. Lightning flashing all night both here and in France.
Shiver me timbers..twas a rough oul' night out there for the mariners.
