On the Harland and Wolff Facebook page as well as the Belfast Live FB page, there's a post showing a new big yellow crane coming to H & W Belfast.
I've tried to copy and paste the link here but for some reason can't get in done. If there's anyone can do this please do.
They're running a campaign as to what the new name of the crane should be. Obviously with the 2 existing cranes being Samson and Goliath, I'm backing the campaign to have this lady called Delilah. Have a look at the FB page and pop on your own name suggestions too.
ThisTimeNextYeer In relation to your 17.25 post why do they need a third crane I did not think there was the work to justify it.
Why, why, why, Delilah?
If it's smaller it could be David.
:)
Jees Si, yer gonna start a row over here !
We can't have a 3rd crane as male. There'll be protests, petitions and all sorts launched here in Ireland. I felt Delilah might be more easily accepted, but then again she sorta assaulted Samson with the haircut so could we have a bad role model like that ?.
I'm gonna suggest we go for a gender fluid variation of David, and we go for Dee. Surley no one can be offended at that, lol
As for the size of the crane being relevent to the name, sure that wouldn't matter when us buck eejits over here called the bigger crane Samson and the smaller one Goliath.
What about LisaDee? lol
Oops, that should be LeesaDee.
Now I'm for it. :)
Lol Si.
You could suggest that name but i imagine you might get struggle to get someone to second it (other than maybe BP) .
( Soz Lisa, no offence intended, am just banterin for the craic here )
Anyhoo, I would have thought "Lil' yellow lifty thing", was more your kinda thing. ;)
I'm now really laughing Si.
Thon 'Lil Yella lifty thing' would be ideal for lifting those big floaty boats or big wurley windmills.
Here's the link below (hopefully) with the photo of the new crane.
