Mersey Ferries
RE: Mersey Ferries
Since writing the post last night , i have found that the Friends of the Ferries group have had reservations that the two ship operation would work , this has now shown itself to be correct it wont work , Mersey Ferries now seems to think the Manchester Ship Canal Cruises are now more important than there River Cruises , it is a sorry state of affairs .

The ferry service was suspended whilst an investigation was carried out. BBC North West had a reporter out at Seacombe for the whole evening but not once did she mention the obvious question - how could the child have fallen in if it had a responsible adult in charge?
