Of course you really mean she's Inbound from Barentsburg with coal. :)

Mind it would be fantastic for the Tyne if we were exporting coal to Russia.
Just looking at her track for the last few days she seems to have been doing an average of about 9 knots, so not wasting fuel!

Glad you managed to get the pictures with the sun out! Just waiting for the next downpour at Blyth.
