My parents are on board. It has been very rough, all outside decks and balconies closed. The lifts didnt work and the waves were as big as houses. Sounded truly dreadful but they got through it safely and last i heard they were in the English Channel and back to Southampton tomorrow.

Just got back from the Arctic Affair cruise - what a brilliant cruise that was.

Unfortunately on the last morning my son started vomiting profusely and ended up in the medical centre on a drip. The doctor assured me it wasn't norovirus and there were no other cases of vomiting on board. However, on the journey home my daughter started vomiting as well (8 times) and I have also been ill - which to me sounds far more like a virus. My husband says that some other passengers told him that there had been something going around?

Just wondered if there were any other reports of illness known, my son was told to go to see his GP on our return which he is doing and I would like to be able to give the fullest clinical picture possible.

It is such a shame that this happened as the cruise was fantastic till then, so we are all very grateful it didn't happen mid cruise.

Thanks for any information anyone can give.
