Master Echo Posted October 1, 2021 #52 Share Posted October 1, 2021 We are all entitled to different opinions even if the basic events were the same. I wish to provide a counterpoint on this thread about Bob the CD. In my opionion he is the worst CD that I have ever sailed with on SS. Rather than give you a litany of examples, I will confine myself to last night in the Panorama, the replacement venue for the pool deck party, relocated due to the high winds. Prior to the start of the show, Bob came to talk to a group of Americans but left without continuing to 'work the room' before the commencement of the show. Part of his duties includes circulating around all passengers, not just his chosen few. At the conclusion of the performance, he thanked fhe Voices of Silversea, but only named two of the artistes who had performed. If he has a problem remembering names, he should either not name anyone, or have all their names on a crib sheet. Kindest regards Master Echo Master Echo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Echo Posted October 1, 2021 #53 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Yesterday one of the most travelled Venetians with nearly 2000 days celebrated his 94th birthday onboard. He is extremely well liked by all the staff and passengers alike. Long may he continue!👍🛳😃🙏 Kindest regards Master Echo 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elginjock Posted October 1, 2021 #54 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Sounds like Bob needs some guidance from the wonderful Colin Brown who knows how to work the room. Just wondering if some of the new CD’S have come from RC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy Toledo! What's the loyalty benefit for 2,000 days; a complimentary Grand Voyage or a lifetime of free laundry at home? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camillus112 Posted October 1, 2021 #59 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Do you all remember Miss. W.? She used to actually live in the ship ( Spirit or Cloud ?). I remember meeting her around twelve years ago...she smoked where she pleased, but the staff gently veered her to a solitary deck. I bet she had as many or more days.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted October 2, 2021 Author #61 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Just got back to Crete, Chania this time, and the rain has finally caught up with us. It’s still a very pleasant 20c here. A lovely dinner with the fabulous Dr E and his gorgeous partner last night, and looking forward to joining Fernando and the rocking Canadian trio this evening.

zqtchas Posted October 2, 2021 #62 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) There was also a man who had 3 thousand + days . But bare in mind that includes days you pay for someone else and there are those aboard. ( I hear he was treating his gardener). So you could be a high miler too!!!

Rare Silver Spectre Posted October 3, 2021 Author #68 Share Posted October 3, 2021 A nice relaxing sea day on our way to Katakolon and Olympia tomorrow. Last formal and Captain’s goodbye this evening. Pretty hot again outside, pushing 90F. Failing miserably to put a dent in the Tiki supplies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Silver Spectre Posted October 4, 2021 Author #72 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Great last dinner with new and old friends, unfortunately last out of the MDR again!. Paranormal has a DJ, no guests, main bar has the lovely Jenny, DV has only the boutique guys and girls. It’s a dead ship! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
