Really? Just give us the answer, I told you I would set a question with this answer
That's means setting a question! I had one last night too, but forgot it...

Ok, both captains were from Bolton. And as a matter of interest First Officer Lightoller who first spotted the iceberg was from Chorley, just up the road from Bolton....

Capts Stanley Lord and Arthur Rostron

Only one made from granite?

That's the only thing I know about the bridge. That and I got massively drunk with my mates last year in a pub right by it, when we were supposed to be getting fitted for wedding suits.

Mind you isn't the Menai Bridge from Wales to Anglesey made of granite as well? So I might be very wrong.

Correct! You are very wrong!

OK as there is total radio silence I will suggest the following

O'Connel bridge in Dublin is unusual in that is as wide as it is long, 3 lanes of traffic each way and a tram ling plus wide footpaths each side
