Aaaargh .. just noticed the spellun errors ... oh, well .. u get my gist.

But, I did leave out the dessert on the liveaboard.
That should have been:

+ 2 slices of pineapple .. which you had to core yourself.

+ 2 slices of papaya .. which you have to de-seed and trim the skin away
yourself.

The laziest cook I've ever encountered on a liveaboard trip.
Between dives we were served tea or coffee time with the sickliest of mock
cream sponge rolls - you know, the type that have a use-by-date some time
in 2006.  The first few days the young boys hoed in to that but half way
through the trip no one was touching the sponge rolls. I was willing to go
in to the kitchen and make tomato & cheese sandwiches for supper, cook up
some eggs to have on toast for breakfast .. but the Italians on the trip
thought the food was just great - this was their 2nd trip on the same boat -
 they had been on her in January. When I think of the variety of food I've
had on the Aggressor, Peter Hughes, MV Febrina, Nimrod III ... to name a
few ... this guys have a lot to learn about international customers
tastebuds.
