My guess would be the photograph is from the cruise ship in port that you sailed from recently.

It is indeed Southampton :good:
Just for clarity, the raindrops were on the window of the Crow's Nest bar.
And yes, they are JCBs.

I saw the yellow vehicles but the only thing that came to mind was New York taxis and I knew you'd not sailed that far..... :biggrin2:

The boat has had a colourful history - could be one of many North East ports.

I'll try Blyth.

You have it Wendy. At that time there must have been low port dues at Whitehaven because many classic boats and restoration projects were moored there.
Next one?
