Denis: the voyage information is mainly derived from Lloyds' Shipping Indexes and Voyage Records.
Exceptionally, some information was derived from a detailed record of shipping movements at Avonmouth in 1963/64 compiled at the time by my good friend from Bristol, Ray Perry.
In 1975/6, I was working in Oslo for Barber Lines

I'm curious what was your position back then since you often mention in descriptions about where the shown ship came from, goes to where & carries what.
