  Funny story. We did the world cruise on the QM2 about five years ago. As you can imagine the laundry room was always busy especially as some machines were out of order. One day a crowd of us were waiting for a machine and lots of women were getting irate, saying this is not good enough on a world cruise etc etc.  We noticed an officer in a white uniform coming towards us in the corridor and some women accosted him demanding to know when the broken machines would be fixed.  Ladies, he said, I’m sorry I can’t help you.  I don’t work on this ship.  I’m the Admiral of the Fleet here to give a talk tomorrow!  Well, some faces went very red!  Next day, at his talk, he talked about the pirate waters we were navigating and said he had no fears in case of attack because he knew that the ladies in the laundry room could conquer any pirates that might appear!

  We were on QM2 when the Queen died. Won’t ever forget being in the Chart Room when everyone stood, raised their glasses & said ‘God Save the King’. Felt like being on the set of Downton Abbey.

  Every video I've seen of this cruise hypes it up. But these people stay in the highest class which is not realistic for most people. I think your video is a true representation of what the ship is like.

  I really feel Ben’s nostalgic feelings about the house they are leaving, where they made so many memories and got their channel started. His sadness is apparent in spite of dealing with the early morning, with the rain.

  Older people of my generation are always complaining that younger people are rude and have no manners. I think being rude and having no manners transcends age. I'm sorry your cruise had to begin like this.

  Loved your comments on old people.  At age 70 my motto is "you are only young once but you can be immature all your life.  😎

  This Welsh grandmother loves watching you both on your cruises. You never fail to put a smile on my face. I think it&apos;s your very obvious chemistry and joy for life I most enjoy. May you continue to sail the seven seas safely and in good health. ♥

  In 1965 my family used Cunard, Queen Mary, to move to Europe. &nbsp;It was cheaper than flying the six of us to Germany. &nbsp;We returned to the US in 1970 the via Queen Elizabeth II, for the same reason. &nbsp;I was pretty young, three on the way and eight when we returned, but I remember bits and pieces. &nbsp;Main memory from 1965 trip was a storm where they wet three tableclothes to keep the food/plates from sliding off the dining tables. &nbsp;Chairs where somehow attached to the tables as well. &nbsp;My child/high chair was not.... I went sliding across the dining room. &nbsp;Apparently I thought it was quite fun. &nbsp;In 1970 most memorable was getting up early to see the Statue of Liberty as we arrived back in the States for the first time in five years.

  Cruising is great for a single parent and a child. Starting around age 4 my daughter decided we would dress for every dinner. Excuse to wear her party dresses and gloves. She also insisted on walking down the staircase. One night we heard applause and when we got to our table we asked our server what we missed that people were clapping for. “You he said, they are clapping for you and all the beautiful gowns you wore “ my daughter just beamed
