Rare kazu Posted August 7, 2014 Author #176 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Once again, us Aussies are hard done by. I have contacted HAL Australia and found that booking from here does not entitle us to a slice of the pie. After some complaining though, they have stepped up and have offered me a Vegemite sandwich each day instead. ohhhh vegemite - how in heavens name could you resist that:D:o laughing at this one as I have tasted it - sorry, I'm not a fan:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted August 7, 2014 #177 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I purchased the HAL travel insurance. If they run out of apple pie will that be covered by my policy? (This thread is so funny but so spot-on!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfish Posted August 7, 2014 #178 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Haven't you heard....formal night has been turned into anti-formal night and we are to wear our sloppy, torn duds and definitely eat pie with our fingers (after all, fingers were made before forks!) Would my bathrobe be considered appropriate attire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted August 7, 2014 Author #179 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Just check my thread - the pies on the Signature ships are superior to the other classes of ships. I've taken a million photos and posted them here to prove my point. If you don't believe me, just check the deck plans. The pies are sprinkled around the Lido deck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julie3fan Posted August 7, 2014 #180 Share Posted August 7, 2014 The first time I sailed HAL the apple pie was good. Ever since then the quality has gone downhill, as well as the serving size. This must be a cost savings measure, but the cost of my cabins keep going up. I think I'll have to try Carnival and see how their pie stacks up. I'll post after I see the differences. (Fun thread...thanks!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted August 8, 2014 #184 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I really can't spare the time to read this whole thread but kazu, you really started something and 1 of 4 took it to a whole new level.

Rare BruhnSisters Posted August 8, 2014 #188 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Pack your Easy Bake Oven in your suitcase. Use it in your cabin to warm your pies. Wait . . are there enough plugs????? Also, the staff loves it when you bring them cute pie aprons from your home state in place of tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4boysnana Posted August 8, 2014 #190 Share Posted August 8, 2014 So nice that they are now providing them and we no longer have to schlep our apple pies onboard or slap a luggage tag on them for the crew to deliver to our cabin. No more complaining about missing or broken apple pies.:rolleyes: I am searching the internet to find the new pie packer that lets you sneak all the pies you want through security.

Sounds like an unintentional collaboration. Roy 1of4 did the intro but the credit goes to Ocean Wench for her very brilliant post. don't worry about reading the whole thing but you have to read her post. I think it is on page one or page 2 at the max :D Many thanks to them both as they totally got what this post was about. When you are not busy packing, come back and have a read. Just don't have any drink in your hand as you will be laughing too hard:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser gilly Posted August 8, 2014 #198 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) What if we don't use a metal pie pan, maybe smugle it inside of a fake banjo in our back pack:cool: Oh great!

CJcruzer Posted August 8, 2014 #200 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Oh great! As if an apple pie thread wasn't bad enough - now we go off on a banjo tangent?:D glad you mentioned that...the banjo soloist is replacement for the duo performing classical music, who were a replacement for the original Adagio quartet. Now I've opened a can of worms regarding musical entertainment!:eek: Better the worms are in the can than in the apples !
