CARDIFF - Tues December 11th 2012

There were two arrivals on 6th - tanker Bro Gemini was back again from Milford Haven with oil products for the Valero Terminal.  She sailed the same day for Avonmouth.  Peter Dohles' Celina  made a quick visit, arriving from nearby Uskport and returning there 8 hours later.
Two more arrivals on 8th - the tanker Patani arrived from Milford Haven, she discharged at the Valero Terminal, then had a few days layover, not leaving for Milford Haven until 11th.  And Finja came in from Barry to complete her discharge of timber at H Shed.  She sailed later the same day, bound for Le Trait (France).
On the 9th another of Peter Dohles' ships - Chyra, arrived, this time from Ijmeuden with a cargo of steel for Ryans Wharf.  She sailed on 11th bound for Nantes.
Two arrivals on 10th, container ship Joanna Borchard came in from Dublin, she sailed for Leixoes on 11th.  Tanker Bro Genius arrived from Milford Haven, discharged at the Valero Terminal and returned to MH on 11th.
Two arrivals on 11th Melas came in from Itea (Greece), she discharged some sort of aggregate (must be something special to bring it all the way from Greece!) at the Pontoon Wharf.  She sailed on the next tide, bound for Swansea.
