Tilbury Docks in the distance. The ship in the foreground at the passenger landing stage is almost certainly the Patricia, built by Swan Hunter, Newcastle in 1951 for Swedish Lloyd for use on the London (Tilbury) – Gothenburg services, plus winter Caribbean cruising from New York. Coincidentally, David’s wife’s family, on her mother’s side, were from Gothenburg in Sweden.
