    Sex, lies and deceit.

    So ... ... what's new? As with the characters portrayed in the novel ... the real life participants are "cruising for a bruising" one way or another!

    Ah ... you're possibly thinking of Ricky R, Graham. Yep, like you, he's one of our Trusted Members ... though he hasn't been active on the forum for some considerable time.

    Indeed, if I remember correctly, he and his wife (whom, I believe, also worked on cruise liners) had been planning to settle in Australia.

    Is that the one who piloted the ships? Lived in Oman for a time I think.
