Passengers stunned as cruise workers appear on deck in Ku Klux Klan-like costumes - According to cruise organisers, the staff were meant to be dressed as ‘snow cones’ for a Christmas party

A cruise ship’s staff have pleaded ignorance after their “upside down snow cone” fancy dress costumes were misconstrued as Ku Klux Klan (KKK) outfits.

As the years progressed, this couple has repeatedly invited themselves to our house, even more than once a year and always during the winter months.

My husband and I hope you can help us with a sticky situation. About six years ago, we met a couple on a cruise and as they had friends near us, we invited them to visit when in our area. This happened and all went well as we share many common interests.
