Honda CB750K5 Restoration by Royhall

I have been following this container all across the world on several ships. At no point has it been held up outside a port for more than 2 hours and that was in Morocco (yes a third world country). That is until it reached Britain where it has been sat in a holding area off Liverpool for nearly three days along with 23 other ships as they cannot berth in Liverpool. Why is it the British just don't appear to be able to get anything right, it's just not good enough. It's no wonder importers are complaining about the rise in costs of transporting a container, what must it cost to have a ship that size just hanging around for days. Proud to be British eh.

Oddjob:
That's so the Scousers can rob it Roy, they prefer a stationary target.

Roy,
Avonmouth is the same and it's down to absences due to the dreaded lurgy, Covid. They're all running on skeleton crews and cant get the ships unloaded quick enough. My pals on the shovels down at Avonmouth and in his team there should be 14guys, today they had 7!!

royhall:
I see your point Roo. I guess Britain is the only country in the world with Covid.
