Oh weird, I just saw a story about it linked on Bluesky, and had to do a double-take at the byline — it's *not* written by our @tweedlydo.

There is an episode like this with a ferry in Olga Tokarczuk's fragmentary novel "Flights". I read somewhere years ago that it was based on a real event.

Wow that was something. Looking forward to the mini series starring Idris Elba.
