Funny, in reality a lot of cargo ships make short trips empty between ports, drop some thing off, pick something up in Le Havre, Bremerhaven, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Antwerp, Southhampton, Felixstowe, Dunkirk. So not surprising that a ship would say drop something off further south and on the return voyage pick up cargo on the way home in one these ports.

Just contact the "cultural" attaché at the British embassy in any Sub-Saharan African nation if you desire to engage in aggressive horticulture. The Russians operate using the same model.
