Broch Posted November 24, 2005 #5 Share Posted November 24, 2005 OH I think you are bing a bit hard on the previous poster. I don't think he/she meant you just had to be American more the opposite. As you can see I am from Scotland too and we don't really celebrate thanksgiving in the way the Americans do but yes we still give thanks for what we have got. She was merely pointing out that no matter what colout or creed they are Americans can all come to gether on this holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very fact that we can interact on this site means that we are cruisers and therefore have lots to be thankful for. I wish everyone a happy and peaceful festive season.

Broch Posted November 25, 2005 #20 Share Posted November 25, 2005 thanks for misunderstanding and then understanding. Your welcome. Have a nice weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumm Posted November 25, 2005 #21 Share Posted November 25, 2005 thanks for misunderstanding and then understanding. Sincerest apologies. Broch was not at fault at all. As I said, I was being pedantic and had my tongue firmly in my cheek. Thanks for you post. It's always great to meet with our American and Canadian friends and allies on cruises. To echo Broch, have a great weekend. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzobsessed Posted November 25, 2005 #22 Share Posted November 25, 2005 right back at ya!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broch Posted November 25, 2005 #23 Share Posted November 25, 2005 right back at ya!!:) I see that you are going on Explorer of the Seas next year and as you can see so are we. 30th April. It would be a great coincedence if you were on the same cruise. Speaking about giving thanks, George Best the famous Irish footballer who once played in the States and for Manchester United died to day and it is sad to think that he seems to be remembered more for his fight against alcoholism rather than the footballing genius that he was. I just give thanks and there be for the grace of god, that I can enjoy a drink without being dependent on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzobsessed Posted November 25, 2005 #24 Share Posted November 25, 2005 hey broch yes that would've been a nice coincidence. where are you cruising to? what has been your cruising experience? ( i know i know off topic completely). but that's another thing to be thankful for.... this website where we can go off topic!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
