Happy Sunday All!

Given the talk of delays in supplies of goods to Europe including Cyprus, I had a quick rummage through Marine Traffic to see how the Ever Given was getting on in the Suez canal.

This is where she is at the moment.

This is the queue of ships waiting off Port Said at the northern end of the canal.

And this is the queue of ships aiming to pass through the canal from the southern end!

Let's hope they sort this soon, as a number of the ships are carrying livestock, with other carry perishable goods.
