And just think of the savings on fuel.

I’m not sure I would trust Cunard on anything to do with geography. I have known them mix up the two Cartagenas.

Queen Victoria Half World Cruise 2024- One Way Insurance
exlondoner replied to colingu's topic in Cunard Line
But you presumably had flights back booked. -
Well, as we all know, Quercus does mean oak, so it may as well be a reference to a station in West London.

Cunard Cruisers - How are things where you are ?
exlondoner replied to Host Hattie's topic in Cunard Line
I had one a few weeks ago. -
Not at all?
-
Or save clanking and just consume the copious booze they have on board - unless you want GM.

It’s official-My GF and I are joining the Crossing Club
exlondoner replied to steve4031's topic in Cunard Line
On the other hand it does feel like that after all those 23 hour days. 😀 -
And other forms of formal national dress.
-
Not for Scots. 😀

I don’t think so. Anyway, Bamboo is pan-Asian, Coriander is the Indian one.

Oh I always enjoy reading reviews, even those that are clearly factually wrong. The negative ones are often hilarious, and the thoughtful ones interesting, even though I have been on the ship a number of times.
-
I hope you haven’t been reading the recent reviews. Or at least taking them with a huge handful of salt.

If you like gin, there is the Bombay Sapphire distillery near Whitchurch.
-
Marlow, Bray, Marlborough, none of them too far off course. But won’t you want to sleep? There is a lot to do in Southampton, as well.

Is Cunard tweaking the Gala Evening dress code?
exlondoner replied to bluemarble's topic in Cunard Line
Do you mean simply that passengers will simply wear what they fell like, because the dress code is not enforced? It may not follow: though burglars are rarely caught, few of us take up a career stealing from people’s houses. As the text implies, most people want to dress up, and will presumably continue to do so. -

exlondoner replied to bluemarble's topic in Cunard Line
Surely a scrum is lots of people in a small space jostling each other. Given that passengers sit at tables why should this be the result of what you assume the policy implies? -
Which ship? I don’t think the balcony is larger on any of the current ships. It’s all down to dining and extras.
-
I don’t think jacket every night applies to any cruises, but most people do in fact wear them, and, depending on the ferocity of the air conditioning, you may wish to, for reasons of warmth rather than style.
-
My memory says QV too, but they were both here that summer.
-
I thought I had lots of photos, but this terrible misty one is the only one I can find. Those who know Bournemouth will recognise the top of the wire fence that stops the goats escaping. Yes, honestly. I’m not even sure which ship it is.
-
And in this era where so many impart too much information, I feel there is a lot to be said for that approach. There is at least one recent author I can think of who should certainly have adopted it.
-
I always thought it must be hard to grow up with a parent who was so obviously brave, while the rest of us feel nothing but admiration. Still looks like Bournemouth, though.. 😀
-
As fjords don’t have sandy beaches, I’m not sure where your home waters might be.😀

Sometimes even later. It was 1.30 on QM2 in the summer. This is good, as it stops one worrying about missing lunch if there are checkin delays.
