Seeing the 'Astoria' heading for Rothesay Dock, and it being a nice sunny morning, I headed to Clydebank to get some photographs.
Weather was changeable but stayed dry, though quite windy.
As always, this is a good spot to watch the tugs at work as they manoeuvre these large tankers through the gap and in to the Dock.
