We watched it too last night. Agree with you, great cast, full of suspense but strange unsatisfactory ending

I spotted a couple in that photo who we shared a table on a cruise a few years ago. Gary keeps up with them on fb and we met them when they were in London

Looks like a great crowd. Bon Voyage to all the WC's, quarter WC's and segmenters. Have Fun and hope to hear about it on CC . Thank you to @island ladyfor starting this thread. Will see some of you in BCN 👍

Beautiful tree Graham . We choose one yesterday but its still outside. Hoping to put it up today. We usually buy one decoration a year, so our decorations go back to when our children were born and our nativity scene use to belong to mum

Thank you, you have definitely more than whetted my appetite with all your beautiful photos , though we've wanted to visit for a long time. Gary wants to visit Japan too

+1 , Happy Hanukkah 🕎 to all who celebrate. May you find peace and get to spend time with family

We've done three on Celebrity and they are on my radar. Their rejigged Israel cruises from Greece this winter have some very good prices. But not far off diamond plus so its tempting to stick with RC for the next year or so. We have booked a short holiday in Singapore in February with a four day RC cruise tagged on. One day we will get to Australia 🇦🇺 🙏....

+1, best wishes for a successful outcome

Sorry to hear Greg but your and Linda's good health is the most important thing. Plenty of time for cruises

I definitely feel an affinity to some reviewers, though I am thankful to anyone who attempts one. Currently enjoying one from Jim_Iain over on the Celebrity page. It's up to 40 pages and is from Singapore to Australia

Feeling your pain with your dad. My mum suffered for almost 10 years. A very proud independent lady who I think of every day. I won't go into the struggles she overcome but she is my role modal for living a positive happy and healthy life. Loving your blog as usual. Your warmth shines through. We're off to Singapore in February, my first visit back after living there as a forces brat in the 60s. I better get a move on, I'm only on page 14 😊

No idea, think its historic. As I said it's being lowered from 01Sept 23 to 65, but us guys who are over 65 but below 70 will have to wait till over 70 which is a bit frustrating

Agree, just pushing people to sign up to other sites

In the middle of watching The Stranger on Netflix, really good mini series, would recommend

We don't get it on the NHS until 70, though they are lowering that to 65. I could pay privately but I think it around £500

Looking forward to hearing all about the WC Laura . So exciting

What a lovely thing to do, sounds like you've got some lovely neighbours/friends 👍

Sorry to hear George, hope its mild though it sounds quite bad. My second bout in August I still have a cough, on antibiotics at mo to try and clear it up but no luck so far

Happened to us in Egypt. We were very careful but still got 'the trots' think it was ice from the ice machine in hotel

Oh wow Mark, what am awfully worrying time for all the family. I'm so glad for you all that you've had a fast and positive outcome.

We use cul-de-sac too, as a noun, such as 'that road is a cul-de-sac'. Close is part of the road name. So King Close, instead of King Road

Post pics Graham, love snow. Hubby loves it too but he spent his formative youth in Winnipeg in the 60s and 70s so he's use to having to dig his way out of his front door

No snow here in the South Graham, just frost. Loved seeing all the frosted webs in the woods yesterday, so beautiful. Today is a little warmer but rainy 🌧. I prefer cold and frosty/snowy over cold and rainy. Going to get the Christmas lights down today to check they're still working and start decorating. Will get our tree on Wednesday

Thanks for doing the report, and Happy 20th anniversary ❤️ We were on Symphony at the beginning of the European season. Was October a pleasant month to travel ? Not too hot not too chilly?

We use to live in a Close when we lived in Sussex. The road we're in now is also a close but not called that . Great for kids to playing in the street as only people who live in our road (or visiting) would come down it.
