Salvo Montalbano Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 The other quote that made me laugh was "One witness, part of a group involved in the trouble, explained to staff that things kicked off when another passenger appeared dressed as a clown. This upset one of their party because they’d specifically booked a cruise with no fancy dress. It led to a violent confrontation".You can immediately tell the calibre of those involved when you hear about "alcohol fuelled patriotic partying" too. I didn't know you could (or have to) specify that you wanted a non-fancy dress cruise. Bizarre. I also assumed given the booze and the clown and the fighting and whatnot that it was a Mediterranean cruise or something, I always assumed that a slightly better type of person would go on a scenic cruise round the fjords. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I know there's a travel/holiday forum for this pish but I was staying in Edzell, near Brechin last week. Had wee trips around Aberdeenshire, down to Dundee, over to the various beaches. Got a good pirate-esque tan in the process. What a glorious part of the world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious as to how they would enforce it. Was there a clause in the booking conditions that said "Nae fancy dress!" Also, how do you define it? What if the guy was an actual clown and had turned up in his work clothes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boghead ranter Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Daughter goes for a play date at a wee pal's house this afternoon. I go back to pick her up, and spend a couple of minutes doing the small talk thing with the other parents at the door, while she gets her shoes on. Once we're in my vehicle, she says "you've got a dry bogey hanging from your nose" *facepalm* 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
