Blog ≫ 2006 ≫ Curse of the Titanic?

Just found this on popbitch1 of all places:

A boat, The Nomadic, which was built and used to bring 1st class passengers from the dock to the Titanic on its maiden voyage was rescued from a scrap yard in France and is to be used as one of the main attractions at a Titanic museum in Belfast (yet to be built, of course). So far, one man working on it has died. (Heart attack.) The Nomadic only arrived in Belfast docks at teatime TODAY.

More here about the return of the Nomadic. Glad it's not just me getting overenthusiastic on ebay:

The government, after paying 170,000 for Nomadic at auction in January and spending the same again to get it home, has established a trust to raise restoration funds.
