CV and mad panic behaviour

[Baggers]

Still one of the best ways to travel and holiday... out on the oggun (ocean).

I guess I should clarify my love of ocean travel... I did all mine on Navy warships and as you can imagine, they were spotless from top to bottom - and so were the sailors.  And the food was bloody terrific. I've not sailed on a holiday cruise ship and much like everyone else, would be very hesitant to do so. If I won Tatts I'd probably give the Queen Mary a lash, but that would probably be it.

BUT, maybe this recent cr@p will send the bad operators bust and cause good operators to step up... maybe there will in future be much greater attention given to medical and cleanliness on these liners? If there is, I'd give it a go... if I could afford it!

This cr@p is also sorting out the airline industry... not a form of transport I enjoy, I can only fly after my mandatory Valium sanger washed down with a shot of vodka (this is NOT a recommendation!!!!). Being 37,000 ft in the sky in a narrow metal tube, and cramped, is not my idea of a good time.

Used to love travelling interstate by train when they had sleepers (Melb to Sydney)... ah, the Southern Aurora... now that was a train! I bet there're few here who remember her.
