You've posted in 'Ribs for sale' which prevents anyone from replying.

It is/was the prison ship. I presume it's still being used.

HMP Weare (sp?) is no longer being used, thought it had been sold off?

Rumour is it's going to be towed to the Thames Delta, refurbished from products supplied by John Lewis'sin cluding broadband tinternet porn feed for home sec and then used to house MPs.

This plan would be ok but a plot was discovered that exposed a risk that a miscreant could then move said ship off the coast Somalia, thus exposing the real value of our MPs
