OH, DEAR, WHAT A BUMPY SENDOFF!





























Yesterday, at 5:30am the Grand Dame of the Seas had a bumpy weakup when beached Southampton with the 2,700 passengers and crew who had just enjoyed a 12-night Mediterranean cruise.

It seems that force seven winds contributed to her grounding.

But as you know many on board joked that it was her reluctance to go without a fight.

First picture: the early morning drama.

Second picture: the Duke of Edinburgh shocked by a blast from the ship's fog horn as he was leaving after his visit to the QE2 in Southampton docks.

Oh dear!
