Brum made the whistles on the Titanic you know

Have you seen that advert for Smirnoff? The one were all the debris is sucked from the sea to deomonstrate purity (purity for vodka being a big selling point) culminating with a huge ship leaning against a petrol garage?

Well that was the first though that went through my mind when I heard that the Bull Ring was to have a cruise ship built in St Martins Square as it’s summer attraction this year. The nautical theme no doubt following on from last years “award winning” beach, the ship will be able to hold 200 people.

More details will, perhaps at some point, be available on the Bull Ring website.
