Birkenhead docks 20th June








No updates for a while but got down to the docks earlier today for an hour. Been a quiet few weeks for shipping but there are 4 active vessels now in Birkenhead docks, Stolt Avocet, Monte, Emsbroker and Stinnes Mistral. Also seen here are 4 "laid up" tankers in Victoria dock. Got a good shot of HMS Plymouth too, looking a little worse for wear now which is a great shame for this Falklands veteran
