CARDIFF - Fri 22nd July 2011

I've been away for a while, shipping at Cardiff seems to be going through a quiet time at the moment.  There haven't been many new arrivals, though I have missed 3.
Sava Ocean arrived from Las Palmas on 3rd and sailed for Setubal on 6th.
Tanker Bro Developer arrived from Milford Haven on 5th and returned there on 6th.
Regular container ship Rachel Borchard arrived for Leixoes on 7th and sailed for Liverpool on 8th.   
Faust arrived from Ceuta and later sailed for Newport.
Tanker Bro Gothia (missed this one again) arrived from Milford Haven on 12th and returned there on 13th. Celtic Freedom (missed this one too) brought in a load of timber from Aliaga on 13th and sailed a few days later.
