Money doesn't buy class though . I went on it between Venice and Rome in 2000 and got abuse of a scouse bloke for ordering mineral water at the bar.

Anyone ever been on OE? I want to take the better half but day packages start at £350 for London into the South East. Seems very expensive for a day out ?
