(The poor lady is now deceased.) If you were on a cruise holiday and fell ill, I think it's fair to suggest you'd want to feel safe while under medical care. But what if you were dropped into a freezing Atlantic Ocean, like the poor old granny from Cumbria? They chose not to use the helicopter, but to pass her off to another ship, and in the process, dumped her in the drink, where she had to endure her 8 minute ordeal. If you were in her "boat", what compo would demand? Possibly a life time of free cruising on the same ship...but then again, possibly not.
I know what you mean ST, but the old sheila must have been ****ting herself. I'd be thinking long and hard about legal advice. With world wide coverage, she has 'em by the nads.
So your world revolves around Not606 Trev? If you stick your head out the window, you'll find a pretty interesting place.
I think if you go on a boat, you should accept there's a chance that you might end up in the water. You're defying nature by crossing oceans and there's no point whinging about it if nature fights back.
Dunno about that Jip. We live in a world where people have to held accountable for mismanagement. If a company wants our business, thay have to give us a reasonable return for our money. We evolved to shop in supermarkets, but we have to feel that we can escape the shop without breaking a bone. Same goes for cars, elivators, shoes, phones, planes etc. I think the lady has the right to, as the title said, "tear another one."
Good idea. I also think we should nick some of the smileys used by 606, particularly the tomato whizzing through the air and the person running away in a hurry; I like those. Haven't seen one of someone ducking (had to be careful there given where the "d" is on my keyboard).
Are you up to doing that kind of stuff with computers Ron? I've no idea about this stuff, it all over my head. But it does look as though the "smilies" stuff could do with a little expanding. I wonder if many of the faithful from 606 will end up here?
