Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thank you all for your replies. Will see how we feel on the morning of our cruise but will probably stay there and buy a few teas and coffees and set out about 1.30. I know its not far but by the time we have queued to get on ocean terminal car park don't think we will be far off from 2.30.
  2. We are due on Iona in march. We are staying at the holiday inn express night before. Check out time to room is 11.00 am. Can we stay downstairs when we check out until our boarding time which is 14.30, or do we have to leave and park up somewhere in southampton.
  3. We are on this cruise also and were wondering the same thing. Schools around here in the midlands break up the 22nd march but I know a lot of schools in other areas are a week later. When we went on QM2 last yr at the end of school holidays grandson kept wanting to go in the kids club. So I would say it will probably be the same. Its not like royal caribbean where there are a lot of things for the kids to do without going in the kids club.
  4. When I was on cruise personaliser I noticed on the mdr page it said no booking required. Does that mean we can just turn up or does it mean you don't prebook. Must admit I thought it was the former. Don't want to be bothered with a phone as we usually lock them in the safe.
  5. I thought that as well. I had a phone call from my doctors as bit of a problem with my blood test. He mentioned the tablets I was on from the surgery. Didn't know anything about treatment I had from the hospital. I have my hormone tablets from the drs but my targeted therapy drug and bone strengthening injection at the hospital. They had no record of them. Told him my low white blood cells were low because of my treatment. You couldn't make it up.🤣
  6. I get that with my treatment. I use dulcoease as is a softener rather than a laxative so kinder on the stomach. I am glad he is back home and all is well.
  7. we are also on this cruise. Will do some homework and decide. Don't want to do a lot of trips as we usually like to do our own thing and wander about.
  8. We are going on iona in march to the canary islands. Having never been before I am wondering if they are easy to do on your own or ship trips on some. Did think about doing toboggan in Madeira but then reality checked in, with my secondary breast cancer in spine and my husbands multiple myeloma (he cracked a bone in his spine about 19 months ago) thought maybe not🤣. Any other suggestions would be appreciated not just madeira.
  9. Yes it is more like a tour, but just going to xmas market and coming back. Free time in bruges is $57 for half day and $67 for full day. This price is per person. We usually do ships tours but thought we would be brave and try the shuttle bus from zeebrugge to bruges as is only £22 each. A big difference.
  10. Do you have to prebook the shuttle to bruges or can you just turn up and buy a ticket. £22.00 each online. Cunard price is $75.00 each.
  11. Have heard from lost property in southampton. They cannot find my daughters jewellery. I am annoyed with her for leaving it and also annoyed with room steward or lost property as some-one obviously has these earrings. If they do all I can say is had you heard of karma.
  12. I didn't want the upgrade because the window cabins are bigger than the balcony ones, also it is only 5 days any longer and I would have had the balcony. We are on deck 1 never been that low down before🤣
  13. I received e-mail from cunard for my upcoming QV cruise. I booked through a TA. I also ticked the no upgrade, so was surprised to receive one. I could have upgraded to a balcony when I booked for an extra £50 each, TA was surprised I didn't want a balcony. We have an outside with a window. I said I didn't need a balcony in december going up the north sea.🤣 The upgrade bid I received was for considerably more than the £50 originally quoted. Needless to say I won't be biting.
