Am not lying mate, it wasnt doing anything when we saw it. We wernt there all day though, just popped down to have a look this afternoon, got a brief glimpse, saw nothing, so drove on.

I aint lying, it wasnt doing anything, it was just docked when we saw it.

I aint saying the news is lying either. Just that we never saw anything, but we had been down there.

The news this morning showed video footage from when it was first moved over here.

I didn't know that it was bought for just €1 - wish they had kept the receipt as its a pile of crap

Mersey Mammoth took the conning tower section to Woodside about 12 o'clock today. I got there just in time to see it being unhooked. The mammoth went back to the docks by the sub and tied up. I hung around for an hour but nothing happened. The news clip on the telly was the standard stock footage from when it arrived the first time. they show every time it's mentioned
