    What happened to it?
    It was supposed to flounder of the coast of Ireland and a rampaging hoard of cannibal rats invade the west coast.

    The west coast is already inhabited by a rampaging hoard of cannibals. When the rats arrived they didn't stand a chance.

    Dunno anything about that ship though.

    If they were cannibal rats, wouldn't there only have been one really fat rat left by the time it got here anyway?

    I found this story extremely interested.

    Especially the fact that they're or they were drifting towards Ireland!

    Their leaders name must be Enda...

    I think they were cannonball rats, and they are now partaking in a wacky illegal no holds barred motor race across the country with hilarious consequences.

    They caught swine flu and bird flu.

    Yay, thank you for your co-operation

    You may go in peace

    I assume you are talking about the MV Lyubov Orlova? It is believed to have sunk, it was last seen "2400 km off the coast of Ireland" or as it is more accurately known, about 150km from the coast of Canada.

    On 23 February, according to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, Lyubov Orlova was spotted at roughly 1300 nautical miles from the Irish coast.[11]

    On 28 February, the ship was the subject of news reports in Iceland and Ireland, and a caution to smaller vessels was issued.[12] On 1 March 2013, Irish media reported that a signal from the vessel’s emergency position-indicating radio beacon (EPIRB) was received from 700 nautical miles off the Kerry coast, still in international waters.[citation needed] An EPIRB starts transmitting only when the device is exposed to water, leading experts to speculate that the ship may have sunk.[13] The Irish Air Corps was expected to continue to monitor the region.[14][15]

    In January 2014, there was speculation[19] based on an interview with a salvager in the British tabloid The Sun that the ship might be nearing the coast of England and be infested with cannibal rats. The rumours were subsequently debunked.[20][21] Alleged Psychic Uri Geller has offered to help locate the ship.[22]

    So there.

    Apparently it pulled up to dock, but the rats figured they'd be better off on the ship, and so cast off again

    Im pretty offended tbh

    Yeah, there was just the one left. Big and juicy, we the people of Galway decided to cook him up and had a big public feast in Eyre Sq with portions of rat and a selection of ghost ship booty for all. Obviously we kept it under wraps, but no harm telling ye now.

    Id' say the rats were off that ship like... rats off a sinking ship.

    I won't even bother getting my coat.
