Didn't notice that :-)

Bob: There's a ship on Commercial Wharf, Gravesend in my photo that's missing in yours. So it wasn't the same day. FIRLE and sister vessel FRISTON were passing Tilbury pretty well on a daily basis back then

Although I dated my shot as April 1968, that was the processing date printed on the slide, so we may have been standing next to each other on the 18th March Bob :-)
