Relax and enjoy it, EDO - not every day you get to be the only (token??) male in a group of wonderful women!  8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

By the way, I'm not being in any photos this time.  I hate being in photos, and was sufficiently embarrassed last time!

It should be OK Ricky.

The brochure intimated we would get lots of drink, our cabin is on a deck called the "Binges" I think that was it's name.

Take camera EDO.

G'day George,

Can you arrange for MI5 [or is it MI6] to do the surveillance with appropriate clandestine photos?
