    Default such a hard life

    I will be absent from the threads for a week.

    My other half is forcing me to go on a cruise, Copenhagen, Oslo, Gothenburg, Berlin, Tallin, Helsinki, Stockholm.

    I know I will hate the balcony bedroom, with the huge drop to the sea. Somehow I will force myself to eat too much. And while away the monotony in the jacuzzi pool.

    However, out of duty, I will give every appearance of having a thoroughly good time.

    You have my sympathies.

    We all have our cross to bear................I'm sure you will do us proud by at least surviving, and I hope you will post a couple pics, (esp of Sweden!). Have fun, if you can.
    Ta-Ta for now!

    You never know, but you might also have to suffer sun rather than rain. I really feel for your predicament.

    Spare a thought for any entertainment staff. My niece used to work the cruise ships (SAGA); hard work for little appreciation and even less pay.

    It's a dirty job - but someone has to do it.

    When you get back, you'll need a jolly good holiday Bill.

    Other halves eh, always making you do things you don't want to.

    Stiff upper lip, grin and bear it, you'll be a better man for the suffering.

    Other half knows best as usual.

    You have been taking too many saunas and cold showers lately (ruining your hairstyle.....I've seen the pictures).

    Some nice brisk sea air will do you good.

    I feel your pain, going on vacation myself shortly, though no cruising involved, more like soaking up the river view and maybe a bit of fishing. I tell you, it's a dog's life, LOL.

    Oh, do post some pix if you get the chance, I love seeing pix of exotic places, (pretty much everywhere but here for me).

    Bon voyage and best wishes for many sales to all,
