I’ve just been on the
phone. This time to change a detail on our cruise.
With the Fox’s loss of
appetite not improving at this point, we thought it might be wise to be moved
to a table for 2, rather than the 6-8 we were booked for. The last thing he
needs at this point is to be sat at a table watching other people around the
table digging into a full 5 course meal. At least if we have a table for 2, we
can just have a couple of courses, or the Fox can have a starter while I have a
main. He doesn’t have to be made to feel self-conscious about his lack of
appetite or nauseous at the sight of all that food on the table.
I spoke to the agent &
told them of the Fox’s ill-health at the moment. The cruise company can’t
guarantee it will be a table for 2 but they will try their best in the circumstances.
We are advised to talk to the maître d’ as soon as we get on the ship.
At least that should be one
less pressure of us for the trip.
If it can’t be organised,
we will just have to eat in the more relaxed (possibly self-service) restaurant
rather than the fine dining one. It can’t be helped.
It seems such a pity when
the good food was one of the highlights of the cruise we were really looking
forward to. Our “friends” have much to answer for by putting on this extra
pressure of their coming with us uninvited.
