Cliveden Literary Festival

[Silver Spectre]

Did anyone else get invited to the Venetian lunch with Peter Shanks and Manfredi. It’s a bit to highbrow for us plebs.

Flights from where?

[joe_90]

Hi Silver Flights from Northern Ireland. The two days the week which are the most expensive Friday and Sunday Evening.

 

Lost count of the invites we have had to decline over the years but I do know my way round Heathrow 😞

I also got an invitation, but unfortunately will be out of the country on the date in question.

 

Shame, as there were several speakers, I would have been interested in not only hearing, but also seeing and having the opportunity for dialogue with them.

 

Kindest regards

Looks nice Mr. Silver!

 

i wonder, does SS ever put on luncheons in the U.S.?  I heard from an Australian friend this weekend that they were just invited to their third SS luncheon this year.  In my 11-years of sailing SS, I don’t remember hearing of any such similar event in the States.

All our invites to Silversea lunches and dinners have always originated in London.I am surprised that similar events do not happen in the USA where the majority os SS clients come from.

Silversea even ventured to the far north last year as they hosted afternoon tea for guests in Aberdeen. Champagne flowed and Silversea staff were charming.           
Goody bag to take away with Hotel Chocolat choccies and a voucher for £400 off next cruise.

Thx Brimary.  I thought the exact same thing.  Maybe they are worried too many of us yanks would show up.

Now there’s an interesting thought, how about some analysis of top Venetians by demographic.
