What's it all about?...

This Blog is basically my ramblings whilst on holiday - an electronic postcard!

Day 2: Being lazy and dressing posh.

Today has been what we nautical folk call a "sea day", that is a day spent at sea, where we all lounge around, read, listen to music and generally take it easy - we have embraced this lifestyle with total enthusiasm! (Although we did visit the gym this morning and lumber along the treadmill for a while.)

This afternoon I spent some time in the casino having a "Beginners Gaming seminar", learning how to lose at Black Jack, Poker and Roulette. The chips we were playing with were of no actual value, so I was playing a very high risk strategy - I will be a lot more cautious tonight, and Jan says that once I exceed my "allowance" (£5:00), "that's it".

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the subject of "tonight", dinner tonight is "formal", so everyone will be dressed in their Sunday best, it's supposed to be "black tie", (i.e. Dinner jacket), but as I don't possess such a thing - and certainly don't intend to hire one, I shall be dusting off my Bangkok "48 hour" suit, (see last years blog). Jan obviously will be looking fab in her glad rags n' slap.

 

The formal night was a pleasant experience, on our table was a family from Liverpool who enjoyed winding me up about West Ham's FA Cup defeat against Liverpool a few years ago - in the match where Gerrard scored a flakey equaliser... I told them how I wasn't bitter...

 

 

Montenegro tomorrow-yay!
