Hi Jimmy, CORONIA was hired by the Environment Agency to take some of the Villagers from Swinefleet down the River Ouse to view the the work that had been done around the Riverbanks at Swinefleet. When she came back into port she passed right by the Shed where I was working at the time. A nice bonus for me !

Best Wishes, Bry.

Brian, any idea what she was doing in Goole on that occasion? I'd have been down there like a shot if I had noticed she was there.
