I was on the Canton at the time, just back from HK, and we had spirits stashed away in the evaporator ( it was never used) and the chief rang down and said start it up, never had a door been so quickly removed and replaced, reckon we were in the book of records.. We were anchored in the Thames for 5 days.
The 4th eng was getting married and wanted a good supply of spirits and in those days it was us versus the customs
