  1. This reminds of the time we took the sleeper train from Paris to Venice. As we boarded, there was a family who had put all of their cases into their room and were now scratching their heads as to how they were to get into their room. We giggled to ourselves and walked onwards.
  2. Did you call 'sockurity' to have them removed? Ah, my coat and taxi, thank you.
  3. Barolo grappa as a post prandial, after a dinner of guinea fowl - life is really rather good.
  4. This is how yoga gurus (or many other gurus) come about. Do or say stuff convincingly whilst 'under the influence', it is amazing how many people will just lap it up. BTW - I am currently under the influence...😉
  5. Drink the wine before you try to do the daft, bendy stuff - simple really!
  6. DW is asking - do they still do the 'stitch and *****'/'knit and natter' sessions? On Voyager a few years ago they had complimentary embroidery kits which she thoroughly enjoyed doing (and still uses the end products).
  7. There will also be a cultural bias in the sample, seeing as how Which subscribers will be almost exclusively British. This will affect perceptions of US styled cruise lines versus UK styled cruise lines.
  8. We have just booked our second RSS cruise for December on Splendor. I was a bit concerned to see the posts about the missing crab legs, as DW was all over them on our last RSS cruise. The soft shell crab will definitely interest us both however.
  9. I thought that most cruise lines add a fee of 3% to 5% to do this? I cannot believe Royal Caribbean do not do this.
  10. It will probably be the best pint of Guinness you will ever taste. I have been on a tasting mission since then and have not found one as good (yet). I shall be continuing my quest...
  11. Spoilsport! I had the popcorn ready for the ensuing confused meltdown (maybe this whole woke thing has put comments about that off limits?)
  12. I cannot say that I am salivating reading this, though it did keep me alive.
  13. Bacon grill was OK - I used to make a decent spag bol or shepherds pie with the corned beef. The Cheese processed went into/onto the instant mash on the shepherds pie. You did need some extras (onions mainly) to jazz it up a bit.
  14. As were oatmeal blocks. Let us not discuss baby's heads though...
  15. Anyone of a certain age who served in the British Army will remember this stuff.
  16. I did watch the funeral on Aurora. I was in blazer and regimental tie - almost all other pax were in shorts and t shirt or the equivalent. I was a bit disappointed.
  17. Forgiven - just clarifying for other readers.😀
  18. Interesting maths - it is about $20 per person per day for gratuities on the booze package in the US.
  19. I am in for this auspicious society. 22 years in the Territorial Army (British Army Reserve AKA the Beer Army): 3 drinks is just getting started. In our shooting team, the first three or four drinks were 'warmers into the bank' - the rest were 'shots down the range'.
  20. You may think that, I couldn't possibly comment. DW ( a New Yorker) likes her cocktails, so I start the ball rolling with a cosmopolitan - then we hit the recipe books while dinner is being prepared.
  21. At home, handover is 17:00 hours (leaving espresso martinis out of the reckoning, as they just confuse things) - on holiday - I shall plead the 5th!
