Rare Lois R Posted July 24, 2011 #76 Share Posted July 24, 2011 So very true - the Brits (typified by my mother) will smile and say everything is absolutely fine with her meal and then once out of the door do nothing but complain:rolleyes: I say 'why didn't you say anything inside the restaurant?' and she say something along the lines of 'I didn't want to make a fuss..'. So very British! I was on Eclipse last year out of Southampton and if I heard 'It's not like this on P&O' again I thought I would scream. I did actually vow that I would never cruise out of Southampton again but I relented. Hopefully they have all gone home and told their P&O chums how ghastly Celebrity is that they will leave us well alone..;) ps: my mother now only cruises on Saga - where they put the vegetables on 20 minutes before the meal is ready..... So very British. Did I miss something? 20 minutes to cook veggies? That would make them mush:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
