Anyone know who the Master will be for the 2006 World Cruise?

 

Also, what computer access exists in the staterooms. If you had a laptop, could you access the Internet?

 

Thanks!

I'm curious, why do you ask?

 

Also, there is a computer room on Deck 2.

No hidden message; just wanted to know. Who is the Master now? Will he be there on the '06 World Cruise.

 

In terms of computer access, is there any in your stateroom?

No access in your stateroom, you have to use the computer learning centre.

If you are lucky it will be Captain Ian McNaught. He is the current Master of QE2.

.... and if your really really lucky it will be Captain Nick Bates, very much a people person, reminds me of the late Alan Bennell, again a wonderful guy, both super personalities, but thats only my view.

But then If l could afford the fare and the time for the world cruise, l wouldnt care who the captain was

Myles,

 

Was fortunate to sail with him on the Caronia's last westbound trans Atlantic - loved his Nautical Trivia.....

 

.....was all I could do not to call him 'Master'......:o

Peter,

.... Yes ..quite.. im sure he is familier with all the jokes, Guess old Captain Pugwash has a lot to answer for, what with Roger, the Cabin Boy and Seaman Staines, cant quite think who else there was???

l wonder if any of them ever saw the golden rivet

cheers

well, thats my story anyway!!!!!!

Myles,

 

I believe you - as long as you don't refer to yourself as 'We'!

 

Sadly, the Captain Pugwash story is an urban myth; it was Master Mate, Tom the cabin boy, and Pirates Barnabas and Willy (ooh er Missus).....despite the various reports in such reliable organs such as the Grauniad to the contrary.....you can read all about it here:

Very funny! Reminds me that when I was a fourth former, we had a teacher named Richard Bator- his coworkers called him Dick, and the teachers WERE refered to as Masters. Schoolboys always got a lot of chuckles at the possibilities, but I don't think anyone dared utter the whole phrase out loud for fear of being accused of participating in same.:)
