    went into this Fred Olsen, Black Prince cruise as a solo passenger and my first with a open mind, couldnt believe how friendly everyone was, staff included, i think this must be due to the size of this ship, as you are constantly seeing the same faces, being a relative youngster i wasnt put off by the generation gap, lets face it in my opinion your either retired or very wealthy to be able to go away for a month, me im niether wanted to do something special after being made redundant after 30 years and it certanly didnt dissapoint me, there was plenty to do during the day to keep you occupied but plenty of room if you wanted some me time, just a shame it goes out of service 2009 i dont think i would have had the same experiance on one of the giant floating hotels you see these days.

    I was involved in an R.T.A. on way to join Black Prince. I elected to recuperate on board rather than in a National health hospital. I was treated like a prince. The doctor (dear lady, suffered from sea sickness) was superb as were the cabin staff. We crossed Biscay on the way out and it was like a mill pond. "That was a gift" spoken in Nordic accent by jazz playing captain. On the way back, our pet Viking was in his element (force 9, with prize bingo taking to the floor). Would I go again; you ...
