I refer to Mrs Causnett’s letter of May 18, in which I assume she refers to The Balmoral which returned one day early because of a high incidence of gastric enteritis.

My wife and I were passengers on that cruise, and in the three days after our return was announced we heard of nobody going to sue Fred Olsen.

They gave us a full refund of one day, a cheque was awaiting us on our return. We were also offered 50 per cent off a future cruise. For those sufferers, of which I was one, a free taxi home. There were no”grubby fingers” looking for cash on this cruise.
