The Queen Mary,cabin 5131,8 night cruise to Norwegian fjords

Did the same cruise with my sister and her husband 3 years ago,or was it 4.The same ship, the same itinerary. All went smoothly,had lots of fun and a lovely time.When two weeks ago I felt I so very,very much wanted to get away for a few days, a short cruise sprang to mind.So here I am.So far so on the one hand wonderful, yet on the other nothing goes according to plan.When being checked in was told casually the cabin I had paid for had been changed,the same floor,5th,but the other side.As getting on the ship was a breeze,having come at the end tail of checking in,here was absolutely no waiting,so in no time was I in my small,but perfectly formed room. A bottle of champagne was waiting for me,it would not be opened on the ship,may take it home.There was a little card that said - table 236,second seating at 8.30.When I checked had learnt it was for 6.Well, not for me. Am hoping to get a little one just for myself,if not,then it would be the self-service in the evenings.Was there earlier,it is nicely spruced up and even if I had to dine there 8 nights,is not the end of the world.The internet room is lovely on the ship,but the noise! The ever so helpful Canadian,or is he American,ex schoolteacher, has tonsils of an elephant and must be heard on the other side of the ship!
