Workers renovating Notre-Dame flouted a ban on smoking at the monument, a contractor admitted on Wednesday, while denying any link with last week's devastating blaze that ripped through the cathedral.
"There were colleagues who from time to time broke the rules and we regret it," a spokesman for scaffolding company Le Bras Freres told AFP, before adding: "in no way could a cigarette butt be the cause of the fire at Notre-Dame".
DID I TELL YOU? I TOLD YOU THE MOMENT THE NEWS OF THE FIRE CAME. TANYONE WHO KNOWS THE FRENCH KNEW THAT IT WAS ONE OR TWO OR MORE GAULOISES (FLICKED OH SO ELEGANTLY AWAY TO THAT 900 YEAR OLD PILE OF KINDLING). A FRENCHMAN NOT SMOKING ON TOP OF NOTRE DAME? IMPOSSIBLE.
