London - City Cruises Millennium Time
« on: April 06, 2012, 03:36:18 PM »
Twitter has a large number of posts and photos of City Cruises MILLENNIUM TIME wedged under Westminster Bridge close to Westminster Pier. One photo shows cory RESOURCE trying to pull her free.
I'm sure more news will follow
Steve
Why not take a look at my blog "SHIPS AND BOATS IN LONDON". It's my take on the river traffic in the City.

This is news to me Steve. Typically it happened on a bank holiday when I was not at work to get a quick eyeball of the situation.

Amazing Ben. Goes to show the strength of the flood tide. I'm surprised they didn't get something more powerful than the Tidy Thames to give her a shove from the other side, one of the Cory tugs perhaps.
