Titanic story update
In a somewhat uplifting end to the story of the oldest Titanic survivor having to sell her memorabilia from the ill-fated ship, 96-year-old Millvina Dean actually raised some £30,000 at auction, rather than the £3,000 that had been estimated. You can read the BBC News story here.

30,000? That greedy old bat. Who does she think she is?
hahahah andy! it's great that she made that much, too bad the TS didn't win the bids, maybe the winners will give them back to her anyway? then she could just leave them to them in her will.everybody wins, then.
glad she got something
That is an amazing story Asterisk.. That is totally awsome she raised more than she needed. Now she can leave some to her children and such.. Anyway been making rounds slowly lately. Trying to catch up with everyone..
