Anyone care to guess where this photo was taken ?

@rmpdesign Press release on the website now, marintec moved to 2023. Although at the rate I wouldn't be holding my breath

@ship_talk We heard this too :(

I'm hearing that marintec has been postponed once again.

Good to so many ads from major players in maritime still running ads with their Meet us on stand x @ Smm messages. #smm #marketinginmaritime

@HJBirkett Pollution Transfer Technologies? Discreet Acidic Discharge Mechanisms ?

You know what I wish? I wish we hadn't called them "scrubbers". Whackedy-WHACK. Here I am writing about scrubbered and non-scrubbered vessels and it is so UGLY on the page, yuk

@SMMfair Culinary delights is a bit ofva stretch!!

Good conferences and talks might make you hungry. At the #SMMfair there is something for every appetite: Feinkost Kaefer serves the finest food from small snacks to complete business lunches. Let yourselves be indulged with culinary delights on the grounds of the Hamburg Messe.

.@HELLENICSHIP hi, why are you still running ads from gazpromneft on your homepage ?

Its a bit quiet here today #norshipping

@GregAtkinson_jp Although with posidonia smm and marintec all on , can't see it happening

@ship_talk Cancelled?

Well that's #norshipping gone from January's plans

@GregAtkinson_jp It is postponed...

Rather glad I convinced the ceo that not booking #marintec this year was the sensible move. Otherwise I'd be stuck in a Pudong hotel right now, fuming

@TomMacSweeney To put that in perspective, that's approximately 363 Americas Cup trophies long.

@syrpis Governing by opinion poll.

I have been reading and listening to a lot of analyses of the reshuffle. Pretty much all of them seem to me to be wide of the mark. THREAD 1/14

@TomMacSweeney Barbaric.

Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has reported that hunters in Faroe Islands riding speed boats and jet skis ambushed and slaughtered 400 dolphins on Sunday. Dolphin hunting is claimed to be ancient tradition in the Faroe Islands, an autonomous territory of Denmark. #dolphins

@AdamSykesWirral @MarinaPurkiss Forgot.... Peerage

@AdamSykesWirral @MarinaPurkiss You have to understand their priorities Pension Non executive directorships Advisory roles (hourly rate) Consultant for overseas business (hourly rate) Getting reelected Doing the right thing

An MP Even a Tory one Can be vehemently against a Govt policy Yet still be whipped to back it Or face expulsion from their party How the hell is that democracy? How the hell are they able to represent anyone but themselves and their paymasters?

@Ben_MUK @thisischerilyn @MikeKaneMP @MaritimeUK This the same govt who are about to hand out 18 new North Sea oil exploration licences ? Only thing they're interested in conserving is their own wealth.

Thanks to @thisischerilyn and @MikeKaneMP for raising maritime decarbonisation at Transport Questions. The UK has huge capability on green technology, but needs further government support to accelerate toward #NetZeroMaritime. See @MaritimeUK's SR bid: maritimeuk.org/spending-revie…

@Splash_247 Can't see how this can be done sustainably or whilst protecting the Arctic

DP World eyes the Arctic as ‘one of the last great trading routes in the world to be developed’ dlvr.it/S74dbP

@RileyD100 @mrjamesob Which says an employer can claim for a furloughed workers holiday, but doesn't say anything about being furloughed just for the duration of annual leave

@ship_talk @mrjamesob gov.uk/holiday-entitl…

Last week I booked two weeks holiday and today got a letter informing me I was being furloughed for the same two weeks. Is that legal? And does it count as holidays? #furlough .@mrjamesob
