Brings back memories Ron, Finland Line and UBC with the Finland service off 1/2 Sheds, Alex Dock.
The dockers were on 14s6d per hour in 1970 and called it 'The Golden Mile'

We always had some 'Midnight Sun' Finnish butter for sale in the office, slightly squashed from dropped pallets ....

The berth with so many memories has now been obliterated by the wind turbine development.
