    Just consider yourself very lucky those Blue Rinse ladies do not throw them selves at you, you would never get up again, or stand on your feet.

    Hope it goes better than the one Royal Caribbean did a couple of years ago, all over 65's. Total disaster, most in bed by 2100 hours and the bars did very little trade. However the medical centre made a fortune I was told.

    Mr Stringfellow was a Merchant Seaman steward I believe. and may even have been a Vindi Boy.

    He joined the Merchant Navy, at the age of 16, as a trainee waiter, and a kitchen hand galley boy. His sailing career lasted two years and took him to Philadelphia and New York where he celebrated his 17th Birthday. From there he visited various Caribbean Islands and finally Venezuela, returning to Tilbury Docks, England. He decided the sea life was not for him and he returned to Sheffield.One trip wonder then !!!
