Just seen a BBC North West news summary... wtf the twonks, they reported "a German U-Boat sunk during World War II and purchased for €1.00 has today been moved to Birkenhead Docks".
Erm, no it hasnt, it was already in Birkenhead Docks, it has been there for year's, it was recently sliced and diced and is now being moved to perish in Woodside, not the docks ffs!!!
Lots of merseyside people were crew members aboard the Lusitania which was sunk of the coast of Ireland during the first world war by a German uboat.So what an insult to thier memory and every other ships crew that was sunk by a u boat.This sub has no connection to the wirral what so ever but the bidston tunnels are part of our local heritage as is the observatory.
It all makes perfect sense expressed in dollars and cents ,pound shillings and pence
been watching this day by day as i've driven past on the way to the tunnel. wanted to stop and take some pics , but its a bit hard with a huge lift tank behind me full of 23 tonne of corrosive paste without causing an obstruction....
