Another day gone by....last night was formal night so we put our glad rags on and off we went with the rest of the passengers to the Captains cocktail party.. Met the Captain and enjoyed the free champers and nibbles. My wonderful husband surprised me with a swaroski bracelet to wear for our first formal...He had seen me looking at it previously the day before. So Pricey now has Sue on his back to surprise her...... Watch this space!! We had some professional photos taken and looking at them today they are not 2 bad. But will wait till the end of the cruise and just maybe buy the best of the bunch. We had another wonderful dinner with our new table mates. Again we were the last to leave. Off to Jammers....the nightclub. A few more people in there than usual so had to share the dance floor and tv screens!!! But we met some more people and moved and grooved with the newbies. We left the nightclub just as one old guy (about Vaughans age...) turned up with this hot thing in a mini dress. She would be about 23 we rec! We watched him pay the staff to dance with her and did she love herself. So we reckon he found her in Vegas and brought her along!!!! Ha!Ha! We will do some more investigating and find out what the deal is. After bingo yesterday we joined up with the 4 aussies and had ago at the trivia pursuit!! There is bugger all that go to bingo but put trivia on and all the oldies on the boat turn up obviously after their nana naps, and they are so serious. We called our team the Anzacs. Managed to get 24 out of 25, but all the questions were on bloody Australia. So us kiwis just drank!! Last night the clocks went back an hour so its great each day we get the bonus of an extra hour to sleep in. Another great day today with blue skies and calm seas. We heard a whisper this morning that some passengers woke up with water dripping into their cabins. God! can you imagine waking to finding water on ya when on a ship in the middle of the damn ocean!!!! Apparently a water pipe had burst. Thats bad luck. We went and lined up at the casino to buy todays bingo tickets and the lady in front cashed in 200 dollars to play the pokies. Well within 2 minutes her machine went off and the bitch won $6500....oh wish that would happen to us. We went off to bingo and guess what. Colleen from New Zealand won $18. Ha! Ha! Oh well that will pay for tomorrows game. We are now waiting for the Elton John concert to start outside on the big screen. So that will get us in good form for the karaoke tonight. We rang Blake for his birthday yesterday. First thing he said...(I found the money!). So hope you had a good night Blake and managed to stay safe??? Well better go and secure me the best lounger on deck for the concert.
