we rang the number, a bloke answered (not happy) but he said we would be picked up at the ship at 2pm

a Chauffer driven Rolls turned up at the ship , 2 ladies inside (youngest was 70 years old) both worth millions......they took us to THE Monte Carlo Yacht Club for lunch..........they insisted that we took their arms as we entered the restaurant area......we had a fantastic lunch......they were friends of David Niven, Roger Moore etc and their husbands had earned millions from being perfume dealers.............after lunch and a bottle of drambuie they took us back to the ship........we were both 20 years old at the time....

...I still don't believe it happened all these years later........

one millionaire from Bolton who owned a penthouse suite.....delivered 200 videos to the ship on our arrival and invited half the ships company on two nights to a massive party at this pad............he'd earned his money from developing those cable slot tracks thingies that go at the back of desks for computer cables jammy git !!!!!!
