I have to say, and dont take this as criticism, I would have told the cabin steward on day 1.  Regardless of how much he is paid or how busy he is, that is just rank and unacceptable.  If he couldnt clean it then there is somebody else on the ship who could!

In that case...hair today ,gone tomorrow.

I was going to post that picture on one of the P&O Facebook groups, but then remembered the lynching I got for calling the food "school dinnery" last year. Should I have mentioned it to the cabin attendant? Yes. But he does hard enough job, as well as whatever P&O are paying him a pittance to do in the hours he is not cleaning the rooms. 

 

I admit to not scientifically analysing the hairs, but if it looks like a pube, curls like a pube, has the length of a pube... it's probably a pube. 

 

I don't want to misrepresent anything so here is another, a bit closer. 

 

So you will tell the world after the event, but not the cabin steward at the time.

I have pre existing conditions but can assure everyone they are not mine .🙃

 

Question..Does anyone declare pre existing pubes on their travel insurance ? 🤔

We are all assuming they are pubes. They could be from somebody's beard. Perhaps a chap,or a Lady with a pre existing moulting condition.

Oh these pubes were baked on and were a pre-exisiting condition. Clearly the balconies haven't been hosed down in a while.

 

I've mentioned it in the after cruise survey - but not to the steward. He was busy enough and it looked like a wider issue.

So you didn't report it in a time frame that could have remedied the baked pubes issue, but reported on the world wide Web. In the shape of pube critic.🤣

I think that there should be a prize for the first person who has used the word ‘pubes’ in a cruise review. Could this be the winner or have I missed a previous one? 🤣 

Assuming the cruise was at least 7 days, were they there on the first day?. If so were they reported and what was the outcome of said report. If not there at the beginning. ????🤔

There currently aren't many cabins left on this cruise.  A handful of outsides on deck 4, 2 on deck 5, only midship insides, a couple of deck 11 front facing deluxe balconies and clusters of midships balconies.  It's sold very well.  I'm guessing they expect it to sell out so are trying to move the remaining balconies in particular.

 

If you look at a lot of the cruises until March there are balconies left but the insides and outsides are sold out.  I think it's becoming likely the "new" cruisers aren't prepared to pay high balcony prices, the changing demographic (just for you Zap!) seems to be not prepared to think the balcony is worth it.

Those demographical folk don't understand. Us elderly folk don't do cheap. At least that's what DW tells me.🤣

It was the same joke as Kalos's, but his was funnier.🤣.

There were two young men running Creative Waves on Iona last month. I only attended one session, and to be honest, it was the sort of thing that Early Years would do! Basically cutting bits from the daily Horizon and maps of ports and sticking them on a black piece of paper. Nothing like the proper craft classes we had on our long Ventura trip a few years ago. 

That sounds like a miss Marple. Can't remember which one. Moving finger ??.

A good optical illusion zap.

Frank wants to know how long you had to wait for that shot.

Avril

We were sitting eating ice cream and the German family next to us were eating pasties ( predictive thought panties 🤣) the shot formed in my head. I got in front of the Germans and ducked down. They thought I was about to nick their lunch and started to call the police....nine..nine..nine.🤣There was a German coach in the car park.

Oh, that's far less insulting.  As an expert, can you put some numbers to this theory, are are you just generalising.

I’m looking at a short cruise in 2025 that stops at Le Havre. I’m particularly interested in visiting Monet’s Garden at Giverny. Can anyone advise if this is usually offered as an excursion on cruises that stop at Le Havre? Thanks.

RC do excursions to Paris from Le harve.

All you southwest folk were right about not feeding the seagulls.  They are getting massive.

Can one of the admins look back and see the last time a P&O ship was mentioned in this thread before all the WHO virologists took it over please 

The tread us about P&O. In the post before yours, when I said they, in reference to the crew, I obviously meant P&O...simples.

You feel some people need a crew member to tell them to go wash their hands before entering the buffet/dining room?

 

They definitely do. Some people are slobs when it comes to hygiene.

@Josy1953 Hope your sister's brain scan gives her the all clear,🤞 and doesn't have to wait ages for the results.

Good old Tommy Cooper, he could make people laugh without even speaking.

Many years ago we were in a pub in Chiswick. He was there with his wife. We tried not to look, but couldn't help laughing. When they left he said " good night " that was it....hysterics.A true star.

That’s really bad kalos - even for you! 🙂

 

Yes - hope we’re not speaking too soon, but the pop-up seems to have popped-off 🤞

I wonder if they went to the naughty step for mentioning a travel agent.?🤣

I keep forgetting to welcome Megabear’s new family arrival.  So - no more forgetting, welcome to the world Remy 

 

Is anyone else being plagued by a large pop-up competition advert?  It’s annoying me - I’ll have to research how to zap it (perhaps I should ask zap???)

It seems to have gone away now....good riddance.

The bookies love these races where outsiders come in as there is not much money on them. It is when the hot favourite comes in that the bookies get stung. 

Last bet I had the horse came in at 20 to 1. The others came in at half past twelve....boom, boom.
