    01 Feb 2008 - The MV Riverdance is aground here, some 200 metres off the promenade footpath. It is lying on its Starboard side and listing very heavily following being abandoned in heavy weather in Morecambe Bay. Salvors are already working on the vessel and expect to have it refloated very soon. The ship looks undamaged. Coastguards have established a 400metre excklusion zone around the ship to prevcent injury as deck cargo is in danger of falling off at any time. Thousands of packets of chocolate biscuits have already been released on to the beach! :-)
