When we had finished fitting out 30 The South Colonnade, the contractors
invited us to a meal in the floating restaurant in the North Dock.
Apparently it didn't get a lot of custom (there was nobody there then!) and
it mysteriously sank a short time afterwards. Insurance was mentioned! I
believe they raised it at the time, if not it should turn up now!

I'd never heard of a floating restaurant. Must've been before my time down
there. If City restaurants are anything to go by it probably sank under the
weight of its own hubris.
