"A NARROW ESCAPE. A very small boy named Millington, had rather a narrow escape from drowning about half-past four o'clock on Saturday afternoon. He was in a boat with some other young boys, and was in the act of landing at the steps of the watermans' dock, when, in consequeuce of some of his companions pushing the boat off, he fell into the water. The little fellow, though apparently unable to swim, tried very pluckily to save himself, and was eventually pulled out by some of the others, who happened to be with him at the time." - The Mercury, Monday 28 December 1868, page 2.
"A DUCKING. A crowd gathered about the wharves on Saturday morning, attracted by the conduct of a foolish fellow - one of the crew of the Offley - who was being boated off to his vessel in charge of one of the rural police. When the boat in which he was had got clear of the waterman's dock, he jumped into the water, probably with the intention of offering one more libation at the Shrine of Bacchus, but his ducking had the effect of cooling his courage, and he was glad to climb into the boat again, and quietly aboard his vessel." - The Mercury, Monday 28 August 1876, page 2.
"[EDITORIAL]. ... the offensive accumulation of putrid matter in the Waterman's dock at the bottom of Murray-street, which sends out a sickening odour contaminating the air for a considerable distance, rendering it unpleasant to passers-by, and inflicting intolerable nuisance and positive danger on all who are compelled to reside or labour within the influences of what we, in the face of the recent conduct of the Council, can only regard as the Municipal nursery of plague and pestilence." - The Mercury, Monday 12 March 1883, page 2.
"AN EXTRAORDINARY SEAL. A policeman on duty near the Waterman's Dock about 5 o'clock discerned a strange object on the footpath, and thinking it was a man drunk attempted to lift it. A fierce grunt and a display of formidable teeth startled the constable, who took shelter in the Parliamentary reserve. Subsequently, reinforced by his sergeant, a reconnaissance was made, and the stranger proved to be a live seal. It was killed by a revolver shot. The body measures 8ft. 6in., and it will find a resting place in the Hobart Museum." - The Sydney Morning Herald, Thursday 4 September 1902, page 8.
"Ferry me across the water,
Do, boatman, do."
"If you've a penny in your purse
I'll ferry you."
"I have a penny in my purse,
And my eyes are blue;
So ferry me across the water,
Do, boatman, do."
"Step into my ferry-boat,
Be they black or blue,
And for the penny in your purse
I'll ferry you."
- Ferry Me Across the Water by Christina Rossetti

A set of photos taken in Liverpool Docks on the 7th July 1973,this is the Canal boat Peace in Brocklebank Dock.
Birds chirping, children laughing and playing, motorcycles rumbling by, ice remnants floating down the river, goose poop everywhere...ahhh yes, spring is officially here.
Oh, and parents....why don't you stay off your cell phone and enjoy your children and don't ignore them when your toddler in the stroller is trying to get your attention and gets all excited and says "big birdie mommy, big birdie mommy", he is only getting louder because you are not paying attention to him, instead, you yell at him to sit down and shut up (exactly what she said to him). Breaks your heart.

The De Wadden in Canning dry dock, she was built in 1917 as a trading ship carrying coal, timber, stone and grain between the Port of Liverpool and ports in Ireland from 1922 and 1961. She was Dutch built, with both sails and engine in 1917 by Gebr van Diepen of Waterhuizen in the Netherlands and was the last ship working on the Mersey using sails and a fine piece of Liverpool's marine heritage.
