From the article in a statement from the office of the Harbour Master:

“Had it floated away it could have contaminated the water with oil and fuel, so it’s a very fortunate outcome for everyone.”

Honestly though, would anyone have noticed?

And a hazard to small craft.  ::)

Late last week a police car on blues and two's came screaming past the office, he was chasing a guy on a bike…..Little did we know that moments before, this had happened, not 200 yards from our office.....Those of you have been to Gosport may recognize the location, it is between our office and the brewery.....At 11 seconds, you can see the police car in pursuit.....

[louisbosco]

as if the guy came back to check on the cop?

Those invisible obstacles are pain in the arse shoulder.

@neph93 you got out just in time…

[neph93]

Shite… any idea what is going off?

[Giles]

Nope, apparently there were people being resuscitated in the street.  I just drove down the road.  5 fire engines, 10 ambulances, 5 emergency response vehicles, stacks of police and loads of unmarked cars….

[neph93]

Bloody hell… could it be the pipeline?

[Giles]

No….

Pub in Gosport, Hants, gave punters chance to swap household items for booze

Stylish as ever. The shot of the bartender and punter both handling the pack of bog roll makes me think that not everyone has understood the concept of the surface transmission, never mind social distancing.

[Alex]

Guess they didn't want this then….

[Giles]

Nice…..

Are you sure @Seul isn't stopping by for the weekend?

[Giles]

Popped down to one of the sea front pubs last night.

There was a notice saying:

Do not come to this pub if any of the following apply.

The first bullet was:

If you are self isolating….

Yesterday:

"Today has been the hottest day of the year and and Gosport has been the hottest place in the UK.

The Met Office has said that the temperature at Fleetlands in Gosport reached 32.4C (90.3F) today, which is hotter than most of Europe."
