  1. Asking for tips is standard nowadays, it is easy enough to ignore.
  2. If I was in the same position I would want things cheaper as well.
  3. I did as well and several of the movies.
  4. They should have smoking areas outside of the ship.
  5. My wife has ties to the Fraser clan, whatever that means.
  6. Coincidently, we also cruised into Capetown and stayed for several days before going up for Safaris. It was 9 years ago, 16-20 April 2015, it wasn't foggy on any of the days.
  7. wow. I am surprised they have survived and not been deep fried by now
  8. I have no Scottish links at all apart from laughing at Billy Connelly and watching Hamish Mcbeth. However when we toured Ireland and the UK driving through Scotland around the lochs and such just felt like home. It was a strange feeling, as it doesn't really even look like anything I have seen in Australia.
  9. I just hope we don't get all that next year, planes may not have been taking off either.
  10. Wow, we will be there on 23 November 2025. Wonder if we will get to dock on schedule, really hard to tell this far out.
  11. Pipped at the post, but also correct.
  12. It is in Egypt, and yes, I am after a more exact location.
  13. Organic nowadays means many things. We went to a vineyard whose grapes made were grown using no pesticides or chemicals and no additives during the wine making process. They did have some sheep which would occasionally cut through the vineyard from one paddock to another, rather than go around. To be totally organic the sheep wouldn't be allowed in the vineyard as they had been in sheep dip. We were told it would cost a sizeable yearly fee to maintain organic certification and as their wines sold so well without certification they decided not to pay for it or claim they were organic on the labels.
