Hi Rod,
Many thanks,I am with you on that,commercial shipping has always been a favourite of mine.I was actually born in Barrow in Furness,hence my interest in all things South Lakeland,as you may know,Barrow was for many years,a very busy shipbuilding Town,both Militarily & Commercially.
Concentrating latterly on Submarines,even that is not what it used to be,same all over I guess,alas,shipbuiding much to my dismay,is a thing of the past,in this Country,I'm afraid.
As for the weather Rod,what a difference a day makes,today was just the opposite to yesterday,overcast,cold, finishing off with rain this evening,ah well! back to normal for around here I suppose lol.
Best Regards.
John.
