Not long to go now
South Docks at Sunderland Steve, lifted out friday and flattened monday
come up a bit with the gear off her, paul. 
The gantry nearly pulled Kevins Akkerman over with the weight when it swang away from the boat and took charge lol
I suppose the box of rocks is the stern mooring. Nice Touch. 
Thats a skip of coal MARRAAAAAAAA worth a tenner of anyones money
Jeez, and I used to put coal in as a young'un, for a tanner (NOT Tenner) a 30 cwt load.Those were the days free coal for the miners, always got half a bag to take home as well. we didn't have much money but knew how to earn it. Knitting pot covers , collecting rose boughs up at Penshaw and Coxgreen, and knocking bottoms up for pots, and putting coal in.
Bloody luxury if you told kids today, they wouldn't believe you. :whistle: :whistle:
didn't need any of these

When u said to Kevin, GET YOUR ROCKS OFF,he thought u meant the coal...............
Sad sight - any idea where she is going for scrapping?
One's on the Tyne and Blyth seem to be going to Sleekburn with a few to Dunston.
