They had them in the Britannia one night I noticed, and also Guinea fowl, which wasn’t on the QG menu. But you can always ask…

Bless. And can they tell the time on a traditional clock with hands?

And indeed florins.

It’s always nice to hear someone talk about bobs, half crowns are even better. 😀

Over many years of teaching, your second paragraph has not generally been my experience.

This all seems immensely difficult and tedious compared with simply arranging a time and place to meet. Surely that is simplest. And it is not like looking for someone in central London. Even QM2 is not really that big, although I do see it is possible to miss each other and walk round and round in circles.

The lady had the table next to us had it practically every other day.

I haven’t seen the video, but presumably it reflects their experience, and everyone’s experience of food and service is different. On the other hand, there are things that are matters of fact. To say in a review Cunard blocks certain websites, when according to all others who have commented on the matter it does not, is surely not acceptable.

Sorry a not seems to have gone astray in the above.

How unnecessarily discourteous. I once had a problem that I was such a weed I couldn’t press hard enough to get them to register, but the man was very nice about it and we found a way. My greatest dread was having a criminal name. 😀

And what makes you think this would have happened if you had merely asked courteously? Lots of people change tables after the first lunch, including ourselves, and there is no difficulty, unless you want window tables.

For me, as a non-US citizen, there is all the difference in the world. Immigration is intimidating and frightening. I mean fingerprints? Customs tends simply to mean a rather cute little dog sniffs your hand luggage. By the way, I’m sure UK Immigration is just as bad for many.

I think they sound like Immigration, as they are concerned with people not things.

We once had somebody collapse outside the Grills restaurant before lunch in Southampton on the first day before a Med. Cruise. Rotten in terms of missing a holiday, but better in terms of easy evacuation than say out of helicopter reach in the BoB.

But nonetheless, even if they are a single individual wearing two hats, immigration is concerned with humans and customs with stuff. Immigration is far scarier what with finger printing and the fear one may inadvertently have the same name as a wanted criminal. Customs checks tend to result in the confiscation of an apple. (Autocorrect automatically gave the fruit a capital letter. I think it is getting above itself.)

I have asked this before, but I’m still confused. Was it really US Customs agents there were 14 of, or was it US immigration? If it was customs, how was immigration handled?

And ordering wine.

Perhaps not in California?

Believe me, they would not.

If they were, they would be on QA…Cunard hope.

Here too. I would have to go somewhere else at 23, while my husband is nearly always cold. However, I didn’t find the QG restaurant particularly warm even so.

Maritime Museum, Medieval House, Brownie in John Lewis Café, Art Gallery, trip on Hythe Ferry.

Honestly, I wouldn’t totally surprise them. Given the chaos that often appertains on disembarkation, it would be easy to miss each other. Also they may have booked trains or transfers. Give them they joy of anticipation, and knowing you’ll be there.

I think Commodore Warwick may have been doomed for maiden voyages. I seem to remember that, on QM2’s maiden voyage, he said they had the roughest seas he had ever encountered.

You have different categories of shorts??
