A bigger splash

ALVIN AND Marilyn Levett of Michigan, passengers on the P&O liner Regal Princess, have found a new way to finance their Caribbean cruise. They filmed the crew dumping plastic bags of garbage overboard, got the company fined $500,000 in an American court, and collected half the fine as their reward. They can now afford and this is what must worry P&O — to book again next year, with all their friends and all their cameras and a few spare bags of garbage, just in case.
