Sounds like a wonderful weekend. So pleased concert lived up to expectations.

Bit like me really…..🤣

Felt exactly the same as you re the Jubilee concert and the Pageant. I hope your Mum enjoys her birthday.

I totally agree with all you said Sarah….. How are you feeling today? Gill

I enjoyed the Paddington sketch!

Me too. Remember them all well. I actually bought some Fry’s chocolate creams a few weeks ago from our local Nisa supermarket who had it on promotion. Still as sickly sweet as ever, but I ate it all!

Completely agree……

Thoroughly enjoyed reading about your cruise Sarah. Start counting down to the next one now! Safe journey home.

I think it is due to bad weather…..

Loving your posts Sarah……

Enjoy every moment…….

Ha ha. Olly Smith is the wine guy from Saturday Kitchen (and watching him now). You may be thinking of singer Olly Murs who won XFactor….🤣🤣🤣

Yes, there were fridges in Aurora inside cabins on my last cruise Dec 2019….

Putting aside the debate of whether mask wearing on board is needed or not needed, P&O really need to make the rules (and any potential consequences) absolutely crystal clear to passengers and crew before and during each cruise and not deviate unless circumstances dictate…… it is like the dress code - not always enforced if a passenger challenges the rules (seen that happen so many times).

No words……… but am thinking of you. Sending a hug. Gill x

You are nearly there Sarah…! Hope all goes well with your Mum and Dad’s tests and then have a truly fantastic cruise. The first one is always so very magical. Bon Voyage……. Gill x

Dreadful thunderstorms overnight here in Dorset between 2200 and 0230. Dog was terrified. Not much sleep for either of us. Hope everyone ok.

Korcula is beautiful and one of my favourite places to visit. All very walkable from the ship with its cobbled streets and alleyways (at least 7 or 8 years ago since I was there tho). Lovely places to eat ashore too. Enjoy. Haven't been to the other ports you mention.

Absolutely. Make sure you have some EWs (elasticated waist) for last few days! 🤣

So sorry to hear you have tested positive. Hopefully only mild for you both. Take care. Gill x

Really pleased to hear the inaugural wheelchair outing was successful and that no one was injured in the process. Hopefully your Mum feels better about it all too. I also had some posts disappear yesterday…. Not long to go now…….

I remember similar on an Aurora cruise when William and Kate got married. We had a special dinner that night, we all stood to toast the happy couple with a free glass of bubbly and a slice of “wedding cake”. It was lovely. I also recall one year when a captain tried to remove the National Anthem at the end of the Sunday service as he said some passengers were not British or didn’t approve of the monarchy. It was only missing for one week….🤣

Totally agree as I’ve had wine slopped on me on a formal night as people passed by. Plus I agree about the danger of broken glass.

The site looked like it crashed twice around lunchtime as quite a few posts disappeared……..I imagine they just took it back to just before the problem and posts that were made around that time fell overboard….. A holiday is what you make it and I just know you will enjoy every moment. Gill x

Quite a few posts disappeared when site crashed. I assume they had to reset it……
