Queen Mary 2, UK and Ireland

Great transatlantic cruise. We were upgraded (free of charge) from inside to outside cabin and were pleasantly surprised by the size of the cabin (much bigger and brighter than the obstructed balcony cabin we had last year) The food and service was great in the MDR, pub and buffet. We had chosen this cruise specifically to see the speakers from ‘The Greatest Generation Foundation’, having seen them onboard last November, they were again, all amazing. We also enjoyed the lectures given by Mike Reiss, a comedy writer/scriptwriter whose credits include The Simpsons, Ice Age movies, Despicable Me. He was a brilliant speaker, very talented and funny and comes across as a really nice man! The only negatives for me were the drinks prices and the choice of entertainment, it’s a little dull for me (with the exception of Peter Haworth, current lead singer of The Hollies, who was excellent)
