Thursday – Still at Sea
Today was the fifth day of five identical days where nothing much changes except for the movies on the in-cabin TV and the 9-o’clock quizzes.
As my lurgy very slowly gets better (I have the cough much more under control now). Tracey is slowly succumbing to the sniffles).
I painted a turtle yesterday…. it sold today… if only the turnaround was that quick back home…..
My workshop, for the A & B groups today, was ‘Negative Painting’, which most people seemed to enjoy. I’ve also given them the heads-up on our forthcoming, end-of-cruise, ‘Grand Exhibition’, which will be taking place on Wednesday, and asked them to start thinking about sorting through their work. Basically, I want as much as we can muster, since we’ll have the whole of the Columbus Lounge and the corridor outside the Craft Room, and it’s my intention to plaster them with paintings. After a late lunch, I painted another view of the Lake January Giant Lily-pads, then it was dinner time.
Quiz Time was ‘Perfect Recall’, another entertaining re-telling of a popular TV Quiz show (apparently). We watched Richard doin’ his Rock n’ Roll stuff in the Marco Polo Lounge, and finshed off with Amy’s James Bond cabaret.
Clocks go forward another hour tonight, so no-one’s that keen on staying up too late, particularly with having a port tomorrow (even though we don’t arrive until lunchtime).
