Really glad to have you back, Ally. I am very carefully composing my PM to you with the real low-down on what went on while you were away. I'll send it to you as soon as my team of libel attornies have finished reviewing and revising it.
Good to be back although as I have said many times already, I truly miss Braemar and her crew and am hoping to be able to join her on a more full time basis soon

The first alpha call came over the PA as the man had collapsed outside the thistle restaurant, the second alpha call was after he had arrived in the medical center about an hour later. We had 3 heart attack victims, one appendicitis and on bad fall on alpha calls during the cruise. On the previous one from Barbados to Jamaica, a passenger passed away after a heart attack.
It's becoming an occupational hazard on cruises...mainly due to the vast amount and richness of the food onboard ship...it's not what the majority of people eat on a regular basis.
