Me too.

 

I was also confused with the sub-heading:

*H&R Ainscough barge restoration project*

The OP must have journalistic experience: a sensational headline attracts people to read the article (or, in this case, advert). The opposite effect would be caused bu a headline such as "Small war in distant country, not many dead".

Maybe that he is trying to get your attention to the fact a RESTORATION PROJECT is in the offing or that it has begun on this old boat ,he may have posted about it seperately to appeal for old pics , help or even donations .

The ambush is an old Leeds and Liverpool barge which was built for H&R ainscoughs of burscough . The sub heading is the name for the project and the money from the sale of coal and diesel is to pay for restoration and upkeep of the boat
