At the same time, Albert took the following general views of the River Tyne, all full of interesting detail of that river in its heyday:
Tanker(s) to the left of us, ferry to the right of us, tug(s) in the middle!
LEDA to the left in the middle distance, with either Olsen's BLENHEIM or BRAEMAR round the corner, and a Blue Star across the river.
Further left again, and ships three abreast
Back to straight ahead!
And, knowing how good you are, I'm sure someone will be able to remember the name of this tanker enlarged from the previous view?
