Missing Aber

[aelmpvw]

the omnipresent andy-hughes seems conspicuous by his absence, anyone know why?

[andy-hughes]

Thanks all for your observations, good and ... er ... less good!!

I have just returned from a two week cruise on P & O Britannia as their Guest Speaker.

For those concerned, the Talks are fifty minutes only, four of them this time, and attendance is entirely voluntary.

I missed you all.

That's a coincidence, I'm going to be guest speaker on P&O Ferries (if they ever leave port)

[Lie-in King]

I'd missed this thread & am glad Andy's ok.

[elliemay1]

andy, what is the subject of your talks?

[andy-hughes]

Elliemay - my subjects were 'Music Icons' - Bob Marley, Reggae, The Beatles, and Motown Records - the cruise was around the Caribbean, hence the first two subjects.

[elliemay1]

Sounds really interesting, andy

[ynnafymmi]

Favourite Beatles songs,Andy?Mine-Eleanour Rigby and All my Loving.

[ynnafymmi]

You put your rates up then, Andy? No wonder they've laid off all those workers:-J

[jno]

ah, you need to hold out for a South Pacific cruise where you can talk about Land Down Under and Shaddap You Face.

[andy-hughes]

Elliemay - it was wonderful. Just waiting for them to advise when my next cruise will be - possibly the Baltic in May for eighteen days.

[andy-hughes]

Ynna - My favourite Beatles song is 'I Saw Her Standing There'.

It's McCartney count-in - 'One Two Three FOUR!' that tells you that you are going to hear just under three minutes of the most incendiary rock-and-roll you will ever hear, and then you do.

Unbeatable.

[andy-hughes]

Ken - my fee is fixed by the company, and Carnival, who own the P & O cruise liners are nothing to do with the company that owns the ferries.

[andy-hughes]

Jno - an Australian cruise would be nice, but P & O source their southern hemisphere Speakers locally, so it's not going to happen.

[Zacs-Master]

Maybe Carnival Corporation & plc. are thinking of a re-brand?

[andy-hughes]

Doubtful - far too expensive, and this will blow over.
