Review of historical data on a container of frozen octopus which arrived in Thailand in poor condition. In preparation for court proceedings, prepared a paper on the decomposition of the octopus and carried out computer modelling of the temperature changes in the container in the reported conditions. This showed that the deterioration could not have occurred during the time on the client vessel.
