Sea day and travelling through the Granadines - very slowly - around 6 knots. A lazy day, although I have done some silk painting. This afternoon there's a talk from a BBC Wimbledon commentator - he was also the umpire in the McEnroe /Connors final. Am giving the talk re arthritis a miss - although I think that there may be a number of candidates !. Only one child spotted so far.
Our dinner companions warned us as soon as we met them last night that they had requested a table for 2 in the other restaurant, and during the meal the maitre d confirmed their wish, so tonight we could be 3 Billy no -mates !
Barbados was hot, but there were quite a few sudden showers too. No rain today - just plenty of relaxing and reading. Hopefully going for a swim today - the pool is filled with sea water and is 27 degrees - wow ! Can't wait for a beach trip.
Dad off on a trip in Port of Spain tomorrow - Dave and I will probably just have a mooch. Not seen any dolphins or whales yet and can't magic them Curran - style !
Janet and Dave - we have next year's brochure and are perusing it with H who is keen to book the same suite again
All for now

Hi Julie, Dave & Harold
ReplyDeleteWhat takes 10 seconds? – No not THAT! It’s the time it took Janet to consult our cruise library after reading your Blog. Can you believe she did not have the Fred Olsen 2010 brochure but in another 10 seconds she’d found it on the net. She fancies St Petersburg in September but Harold’s cabin is over £3,600. Guess he’ll have to get a paper round.
As far as the missing guests on your table are concerned can I suggest you nip down to the shop and buy a family of teddy bears. Take them to dinner and insist that they all get napkins and cups of tea. You’ll soon have an officer on your table although it might be the ship’s doctor.

Loved hearing your news, and look forward to further instalments.
ReplyDeleteAre you in the same restaurant as last year? And is Arnold still onboard?

Hey there
ReplyDeleteWell its a chilly 17 degrees on our way back to LA here so slighltly jealus, however though in 2 days time will be in 40 degreee mexican riveria..!!! he he he
AS for the comment on the pool, yea all ships including ours uses sea water for the pools,. so depending on the temp of the sea water means how hot or cold the water is, as they dont like heating them,.
All sounds very idyllic! Just retrieved the cats from the cattery, so we now have a full complement. Make sure you've got plenty of sunscreen. Hope you have spare hats in case Harold unaccountably loses his...
