"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Seriously, you don't mean sarcastic rather than charming? Cammy doesn't like me now, 'cos you tattle-taled on my sig. ;)

Plus I reckon, you'd far easier by able to convince Cammy, manipulating men isn't that a woman's special power?

it will cost us each R10 to get on board the ship, its to stop people from climbing aboard and just walking around. We have different options for the restaurant.
Upper Deck (Buffett) +/- R75 per head
Cargo Hold (Expensive, Small portions) A La Carte
avreage price per main course R50
Shark Bar (Just a Bar)
Then there is also the restuarant outside the ship on the beach side where we can get some tasty baskets, Pricing is not bad. I've eaten there before.

@Jee: A LIFT?!?!?!?! That would be great. DOn't worry about your driving, it can't be as bad as my Gran in her little 1.5 Diesel Clio. Damn can that thing move.

well its not really breakfst considering its actually closer to lunch so technically its brunch. plus if you add in the talking we will be doing then i would say that we will probably only eat at about 12 or maybe even 12:30.

Don't forget the huge amount of other restaurants there are available. The main question that we should be concerned with is... Do we want to have booze or not?

I don't mean to rock the boat (forgive the pun) but there is also Suncoast casino if you guys want breakfast or brunch. Hell we can even go to Center Court and have a buffet breakfst and the bonus is that they are pretty reasonable so roughly R50 but don't hold me on that one. There is also a lot of restaurants there. In fact after that we can maybe head to either the casino or the movies or we can stand outside the ECR booth and make faces in the window. Just some ideas.

i've been there a few times, i think the cargo hold might be a bit formal... there are lods of places in the "ushaka village" like wimpy, spur, etc - i think those would be more appropriate, we could be loud or whatever there without causing ****...

i vote for somewhere in the village (the like mall type area next to the ship)...

WE ARE NOT GOING TO MACDONALDS!
The cargo hold is too formal, but ontop of the ship is a nice area where you can order off a menu, there is a bar, and the view is spectacular. If it rains, we can go inside where they serve a carvary.

I've been to both and both are kinda nice - and if we don't like it - there are loads of other restaurants around.
