  1. But there's tonic and TONIC. Some are quite pricey. I'm guessing that's why they charge.
  2. So you're going to copy bad, even forbidden behavior, thus encouraging others.
  3. I just remembered something and checked it. Milk can be frozen. That's got to be it. No way milk is going to last even two weeks.
  4. Did a quick google and the main word used regarding the difference was "minor." And perhaps stop being such a snot.
  5. So you've actually asked? As I've said I can't tell the difference. On long parts of a trip with no ports I wonder how they keep it fresh.
  6. That seems like a reasonable response.
  7. Nor can I. I'd never even heard of it. And, yes, about my 'taster' also.
  8. Where in Oregon are you? We used to live in Grants Pass.
  9. I've not found it either but wish I could. It would be nice, say, when returning from a trip to know that there was milk in the house. I think the Brazilians (and others?) must not drink much milk as it was in one liter boxes.
  10. I wasn't familiar with the term so googled. We used to spend time in Rio de Janeiro and all their milk was at room temp and steri-packed which sounds like UHT. ??? I would think a cruise ship would have little choice but to do that. Am I missing the point here??
  11. THIS! Please don't try to do any single thing all together. And dinner seating for 40 people? Whew. I'm also wondering if 2025 is too soon. A ton of people here seem to be booking in 2026. Maybe that would give you a better chance for that big a group. PS: You are very, very brave 🙂
  12. @dickinson already replied. Google is my best friend but sometime I'm not in position to do a search
  13. I've found when traveling, sea or land, that we 'dine' later. Busy days, a little rest, a cocktail. Dinnertime sneaks up on us.
  14. Thanks. Could you provide a citation that supports this?
  15. Difference between the two: The biggest difference has to do with the direction in which the money flows. With extortion, someone is generally threatening someone else to try to get money from that person. Or, they might be using threats to try to get a special service. With bribery, there is not necessarily a threat involved.
  16. Well, since these are true corporations not some little mom and pop, I have to believe that the maitre de's and others have been instructed with the appropriate warnings.
  17. But it's a bribe, right? If you don't consider it a bribe, then what is it? Isn't a tip always afterwards for good food/service/etc.?
  18. Could you elaborate a smidge on that please. Is formal black tie or a nice jacket, dress shirt, tie and slacks. Stricter smart is that what O would like but doesn't enforce. Like Dockers and at least a collared, knit shirt, no tennis shoes? Thanks, sir.
  19. Thanks. I did a quick search of just two pages of his posts. A bit overwhelming 🙂 I'll contact CC as Kat suggested.
  20. The difference is that it only just started happening. And no one else has mentioned it. Oh wait, I'll give you a 'like' and you can see if you get an email with the "somebody." Thanks.
  21. Thanks so much. It's really not that important but it is odd. And no one else has commented on it. I'll do it tomorrow. Sweet dreams.
  22. Thanks. But I'm saying that the email notifications are now saying "somebody" rather "czarina clo."
  23. Thank you but I still don't understand the point.
