Re: When is he going to build a bridge
"The Irish sea often seems to act as a funnel to concentrate storm surges running up it."
One great storm in the Irish Sea, which caused hundreds of deaths of fishermen, prompted Admiral Fitzroy (previously Captain Fitzroy of the Beagle voyage with a certain Charles Darwin on board) to create the Meteorological Office to attempt to predict the weather and warn seafarers of dangerous weather conditions. The previously named 'Finisterre' sea area was renamed recently by the Met Office 'Fitzroy' in his honour.

A barometer he gave to a village is actually in a wall at the harbour at Mousehole in Cornwall.
