Christmas gift

If you don't know the story behind the barge, after a severe storm last month, this barge came loose and headed for a bridge.  Fortunately it was beached before it struck the bridge.  It's become quite the attraction.  People go and take selfies, they want to make it into a restaurant and it has it's own Twitter account.  They are now discussing leaving it and making it an art exhibit.

The owner has been trying to float it, but so far everything they've done has failed.  People love it and it's quite an attraction.

Barge on the Beach
 

“This day is called the Barge on the Beach day/We that shall live this day and come safe home/Will stand a tiptoe when this day is named/And rouse us at the sight of the Barge on the rocks./West End residents that shall live this day and see old age will/yearly feast their neighbours/And say, tomorrow is the bedevilled Barge Day …”
