However the thought of a mini-library and endless beers is a delightful one.

I...Alan, just read your post and quite enjoyed it. I too have an aversion to cruises, unlike you I have not yet tried to master it. In 1962 as a 15/16 year old I went on P&O Orcades to Singapore from Tilbury when my Dad was seconded to the Malaysian Air Force for 3 years. At that age I loved it. How would I cope with all those people now? Just can' bring myself to try, but toying with the idea of a 'mini' cruise up the Norwegian fjords to see how it goes; we'll see.<br />What an amazing menu, and what a great way to start the day.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05697994929567403766noreply@blogger.com
