Hubby had a contact lens test this morning, so to get myself out of the house I went with him. While driving in, we were listening to the news and there was a report of that an Italian merchant ship had been hi-jacked in the Arabian Sea. According to the ships owners, it was on its way from Brazil to Rome.
In the Arabian Sea..............................was it lost????? I am no shipping expert, but I would have thought with the price of oil being what it is as the moment, surely it would be better to take the quickest and we shortest route.....................like across the South Atlantic, up the coast of Africa and in through the Med!!!!! After all, no thousands of miles in detour round the bottom of Africa and missing out those dangerous pirate hot spots off the coast of Somalia!!!
