six day long suez canal blockage that we experienced back in may and the clog ripple out effect that, container ships with clogs of all of the supplied with backlogs, including china in particular. we have also seen other leisure centres like hotels, restaurants, also wanting these outdoor equipment so they can move some of their infrastructure outdoors in order to comply with ongoing covid restrictions, which means that the demand for things like outdoor seating and tents, etc, is even more high and intense than usual. so the net result is that although we are enjoying the british sun at last, we cannot necessarily get our hands on the all important chairs and tables that we need to have our holiday beverages and the rest outside. so the result is that although we are

Cairo, May 12 (AP) Egyptian authorities impounded a massive cargo vessel that blocked the Suez Canal last month amid a financial dispute with its owner, the canal chief and a judicial official said Tuesday. Lt. Gen. Osama Rabie said the hulking Ever Given would not be allowed to leave the country until a compensation amount is settled on with the vessel s Japanese owner, Shoei Kisen Kaisha Ltd. “The vessel is now officially impounded,” he told Egypt s state-run television late Monday. “They do not want to pay anything.” There was no immediate comment from the vessel s owner. Rabie did not say how much money the canal authority was seeking. However, a judicial official said it demanded at least $900 million. The state-run Ahram daily also reported the $900 million figure.
The Suez Canal chief said Tuesday that authorities are negotiating a financial settlement with the owners of a massive vessel that blocked the crucial waterway for nearly a week.
