Bloody Mary

Just days before the Queen Mary II, the largest passenger boat ever built, rolls of the docks in St Nazaire she has already earned herself a bad name.

An estimate of between 12 and 16 people fell to their deaths saturday when the gangplank collapsed. She was in a dry dock. Why the number varies, I do not know. It was enough, however, for both the President and the PM to pay a visit of condoleonce.
