The Ali-ali-O is the Manchester ship canal built in the 1880's and early 1890's. It turned Manchester in to England's 3rd most important Trading port despite the fact that Manchester is over 50 miles from the coast. There would have been hundreds of big ships using it everyday bringing in cotton form the USA, so it is very likely that one of these large ships sailed on the last day of September. the Canal is no longer in major use, as it it not big enough to deal with today's modern ship sizes.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
