    I’m beginning to think this trip is cursed.  Nothing earthshaking but lots of little issues keep cropping up. Definitely losing my enthusiasm.

    Pooch got a reaction from ADK in Need advice about packing a suit and having it pressed onboard   
    I have a small spray bottle that goes into my 3-1-1 bag (you are flying are you not?) that I fill from the big bottle.  It holds enough for more than a week for us.

    Pooch got a reaction from Lindsay in New Royal Promo - Call & Save!   
    I don’t know how to tell if I could save more.  We currently have 30% off each for 3 adults plus $200 OBC.  Our room cat and one above & below are sold out so I can’t do a mock reservation.  Any suggestions?

    I agree that for a meal labeled "formal night", jeans, dockers, any type of casual wear is not appropriate.  Its called formal night for a reason.  But at my age (remember me? Old? Grandkids? that I apparently mention too often) I realize I can't control other people's actions, only my own actions and reactions.   If people are going to show up dressed informally, nothing I can do about it.   I also would prefer women not wear woven dental floss as a swimsuit in public but they don't ask me!!

    I never said I am on vacation, I’ll do what I want.  Nor am I in any way “flaunting” staying in a GS.  I did say I would not attend formal night in the MDR as we don’t care to get dressed up and that should be expected THAT night.  However, on the other nights as long as I am neat, clean and presentable, that should be enough to gain access to the dining room.  
    And I dislike people trying to belittle others with comments like the corner bar reference.

    I think I may be the “guy” to whom GlennGlenn is referring.  BTW I am a 62 year old grandmother of 4.  I maintain that my clothing selection should be decent enough to let me eat in the dining room with the grownups.  I promise to use my napkin not my sleeve and to chew with my mouth closed.
    And I cannot begin to tell you how much I resent your incredibly snotty comment that people who don’t live up to your dress code “should be at the corner bar spending their paycheck”.  Just the type of elitist attitude found on the Titantic!

    I dress every day for work and frankly look forward to not having to on vacation.  My husband is a retired truck driver and would dress up only if absolutely compelled to do so.  That having been said,  we wear clean presentable clothes at all times.  He will wear a nice polo or button down shirt with a nice pair of jeans (hates dockers and won't wear them) and me, a nice pair of capris with an appropriate top.  That's as dressed up as we care to get on vacation.  I won't go to the MDR for formal night as we choose not to get dressed in what I feel is appropriate for that night.  BUT I will most certainly dress as stated in the MDR on other nights.  I don't feel I should be relegated to the Windjammer buffet because I don't get more dressed up than that.  Sorry but that's my opinion.

    I don’t know which “middle aged entitled people” you know but this middle aged entitled person and her husband worked for 40 years, raised & educated 2 millenials and aid in the care of 4 grandchildren.  I assure you no one waits hand and foot on me!  So yes,  I deserve a little entitlement.  Maybe when you are my age, you’ll understand how “entitled” your comments sound.
