Day 6

Early start this morning. The drums of aviation fuel had to be tallied on, that was my job for most of the day (I was the tallisman), apart from when the 2 lorries full of frozen food arrived and had to be man handled into the freezer. The lower hold is now full, with 1200 barrels of fuel, the rest to finish tomorrow then beginning to load containers and all the break bulk cargo into the various spaces. The landing craft was brought from Grimsby today and will be loaded this week.
