I HAVE decided that my least two favourite words are “sue” and “compensation”.
So people who can’t wait to get their grubby fingers on some cash, for any excuse available, are now planning to sue Fred Olsen over their having to cut short a trip to the Norwegian fjords because of illness amongst passengers.
Would they have thought it better to have carried on with this voyage when illness was likely to strike more of the passengers?
It is a great pity they cannot sue the Almighty for causing some humans to succumb to illness, which presumably is nobody’s fault? Some people’s desire to screw cash from any possible source make me sick.
