... offer up the free champagne to try and get people there. Not a bad ploy either, maybe after a few champagnes people are more likely to sign themselves up! A few of the couples we have spoken to have been on several Holland America cruises. Paul is very impressed and says he would do it again but I'm still not a big fan of the movement issue.
