They are now known as "imagine and go" Very handy for those who are only thinking about eating . Zero % calories too 🙃

Let them book on the app 🙂 It's fair to say the MDR can have it's moments ,I reported a waiter who walked out of the loo without handwashing . Also told one that has he had just coughed in his hands not to bother serving us . Both were not P&O but it does happen .

Good morning ,hope everyone is ok and @Host Sharon is getting sorted with her fractures. It's lovely and fresh this morning after an early morning thunderstorm , at least that's the garden watered. I remember our next door neighbours lad used to be obsessed with thunderstorms . His dad was trying to get him in out of the garden during a bad storm but he refused to come back in and just stood there holding his mothers metal clothes prop aloft and yelling at his dad " I AM HE- MAN , MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE ! " His dad looked to me and said "What can I do ? " I told him if he was my lad he would have been grounded 🙃 Have a good day

Best to check the carpets if they look like they haven't been cleaned then you have a Slovak 🙃

Same here Dave . On the Azura /Ventura I have been known to have a light breakfast at 6.30am in the buffet and the MDR at 8.30 if needed . Come lunch time set off for the MDR if we were onboard and on the way there passing the Glasshouse decide to eat in there instead . Come 6.30 pm possibly a light bite before a wander into one of the bars or the theatre which was nice and peaceful . We did all this and our phones were tucked away in the safe . I hope next time if I revisit one of these ships I get the same experience .

Good morning ,hope everyone's OK 🙂 Why do some things that are nice and relaxing have to be spoilt ..? As it's nice weather I made up a flask and some sarnies and headed for the coast. On the beach it was quiet and a crowd of children playing nearby , very nice. That was until a man and his wife set off fighting in front of all these kids. They were screaming and shouting at each other whilst she clung on to a little baby ! It got even worse a policeman came and the wife's husband set off fighting with him as well and got the upper hand and started hitting the police man with his own truncheon . Then out of nowhere came a Crocodile that ate all these sausages ! I'd seen enough and went home ... Hope you all have a peaceful day ..Take care

Sending you a BIG HUG .. So sorry for your loss 🙂

When I was about 14 year old ,my Dad had a sheepskin coat and had managed to get some muck on it . As a kind and loving son when were out I thought "I can clean this " We had just recently bought a new front loader washer ,so I bunged it in there on a hot Bio wash ! Then bunged it in the tumble drier for 1/2 an hour . The good news was I had removed the stain . My Dad did not know if to laugh or cry at my kind deed as it was now like cardboard and could stand on it's own , also it would have fitted my 6 year old sis ,it had shrunk that much .🥴

Looks like today is going to be another warm one ,expecting 25-27.c today . Even the cats that pass by are staying home . Not much fun for cats or dogs ....

That brought more memories back .. Just for fun, what was your first car and can you remember where you first took it on a decent run out ? My car was a C reg Ford Anglia (snotty green ) bought out of the local rags £30 and under section . Taxed and tested ,sold as seen . I put 2 gallon of petrol in her and a pint of oil as the seller told me she's burning a bit of oil. No more to do I followed the A630 into Doncaster and thought what the hell and headed along the A18 M18 had not been invented ,not stopping until I reached Cleethorpes . The oil light was flickering so found a garage and bought more oil /fuel and made my way back home and was so glad to get home as the oil light was on again and I stunk of burnt oil but I was skint for that week but happy .🙂

I do remember my first car taught me how to swear fluently ! When I went to open the door it would greet me with a static shock and who could forget those plastic seats on a hot summers day ? Trying to wind the window down gasping for air and then just to make your day, you gripped the steering wheel with both hands (like the door knob scene in home alone ) Happy motoring 😏

Do they do bigger ones or just the LiDL ones 🙃

I had the same problem declaring my heart issues, lots wanted those prices ,some just said sorry but we cannot insure you for those conditions . In the end we tried a few away from the comparison sites and was surprised when Stay Sure quoted me just below £780 ! My advice would be ring around as some of the online drop down options do not always give a true picture of your conditions.

Also just walk past the Premier Inns front entrance and there's a small Co-Op shop for any bits & bobs / snacks for staying in these hotels or to take to the port with you .

Just for anyone not used to the area ,the car park is West Quay Multi park and not owned by Premier Inn, so you don't have to be staying with them . Very good car park and as you describe it's nestled between Carnival and the Moxy hotel . https://www.google.com/maps/@50.9016214,-1.408835,3a,75y,274.69h,108.06t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sFzpzVJVwsex-bUg0_OkdcQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?entry=ttu

I would join you but I would need another job to pay for them . I remember my dad saying ..." You selfish boy " If only I had listened to him and bought a fish mongers van .... 🙃

I thought you once said that was Mrs Zapps idea of perfect seating 😉🤣

Elvis ,all shook up 😉

Could be a bit of a mine field as insurance can be fickle . scenario 1 Bert parks his car on some backstreet away from home and jets off on holiday only to find on his return his car has been stolen and used in a crime according to the local police . Do the insurance pay out ? Sensible Fred gives his car and keys over to a parking company and also jets off on holiday only to find on his return his car also had been nicked and used in a crime according to the local police . Do the insurance pay out ? (Foot note some companies state you park with them at your own risk ) https://www.thesun.co.uk/motors/3831158/are-you-insured-when-you-leave-your-car-at-an-off-site-airport-car-park-millions-of-holiday-maker

I think they were demonstrating that the 8mph could till do some damage ,where you could have stopped . That was just a pre set trial with a driver in a car, add to that weight with passengers luggage or wet / icy surfaces and chances are you will travel a lot further that's until you hit something . Years ago I was invited by S Y Police to take part on a machine /sled they had made to demonstrate seat belt safety , down a slope and a dead stop at approx 20mph . It went with a fair jolt !

Seeing we are comparing Airports to Cruise ports . A few weeks ago we had a flight leaving at 8am and request was turn up 3hrs before . Transfer were included from our hotel and as the transfer was 10 mins we asked for 5am pick up . "Sorry all our slots are booked ,we can do 4.30am ? " Which we took and were not asked to wait outside the airport . Surely P&O can let Folk in to be seated who are 20-30 mins early ? As Andy pointed out if your really early and they say no ! Then find a nice bar/cafe as they have plenty to choose from .

My mate got a photo from a speed camera through the mail. He sent it right back – way too expensive and really bad quality.😉 A true story ,years ago when out in the pubs and clubs me and a couple of lads used to pull each others leg with daft stuff . One beer session (we will call him daft Dave ) came up to us and said ... "Nar then ,has thar seen speed camera they put in at bottom of hill ?" Before anyone could say anything one of the lads said "Not a problem if you do 16 MPH over The speed limit . He laughed but we didn't and went on to explain "Owt over 30 up to 46 Mph it will do you . " "Thar kiddin us " said daft Dave . Nope think about squirrels and birds ,they would set camera off all the time but as most move above this speed, the camera is set to ignore it and cars doing the same get away with it .. Do you know anyone who got a ticket going that fast unless it was a 40MPH zone or above . A week or so went by and we had forgotten all about it until Dave came in the pub with his speeding ticket !! Telling us it did not work 🤣

Sometimes you can drop on price wise .The other week we had reason to be in the East Mids area on a Sunday afternoon. I said to Mrs K "As a treat we should have a night out" Knowing she would be thinking Raddison /Hilton or some other nice place . To wind her up I booked the Travelodge in the services ,which came at the bargain price of £32 with free overnight parking and WI-FI . If I had booked last week it would have cost over £250 😮 As nearby Donnington had a Music event on . The joke was on me as she loved it for the price we paid 🙂

Didn't want to post this yesterday as not to spoil things for our Wordlers Three times I kept thinking I was right , only to find out it was WRONG 🙃🥴

I don't really have anyone giving me cash to put in our bank and anything that comes my way has been paid in direct to my account anyway. Last time I used the bank to withdraw cash more than the ATM's would pay out ,I found my self queued up behind a host of business folk paying in their takings .
