No, "The Pink Barnacle" is not a club catering for gay sea-farers.
No, I'm not going to make lewd jokes about "going under", "seamen", "Bottom-Feeders" or "Aaarrrs!".
It's merely a bunch of barnacles, coloured pink. Plain and simple.
Anyway, did you know that the wild Barnacle Goose (Branta leucopsis), whose eggs and young were rarely seen by humans because it breeds in the remote Arctic, got its popular name because it was imagined to grow from gooseneck barnacles ?
