Full report to follow in a day or two but yes, all speciality restaurants open with the exception of the Glass House currently only operating as a bar. We didn't eat in the Olive Grove so can't be certain but it appeared regularly on the list to.book on the My Holiday Web page so I assume it was not fully booked for every day.

Merv’s the man screwy. I’m sure he’ll be along soon unless he’s missed the bus.

Ahem. Yes here I am. The only things available to book before boarding when we went were the Limelight Club and two Headliners shows in the theatre, both excellent. Other acts in the theatre only appeared on the "app" when we boarded and other venues were just turn up like the old days.

To add, apart from the Limelight no guest artistes you'll probably have heard of, but pretty good nonetheless. Elvis didn't turn up.

A young lad who regularly appears in the Limelight is called Mat Terry.
He lived down the road from us when we lived in Maidstone.
He was on one of the talent shows.
Nice way of earning a living.
Empty vessels .. and all that

He was in the Limelight during our cruise. Originally supposed to be Matt Cardle but last minute change.
