P&O SUE

Not jealous at all! Looks lovely.

I had Captain Camby as my first captain, I’ll never forget his last night ‘speech’ he was thanking his crew for all their hard work - I was nearly in tears but then I was just loving everything and didn’t want to get off! Captains recently haven’t had much of an impression on me but I was pleased to have Camby again and Paul Brown and Neil Turnbull stood out too.

I’d be a bit worried if I was Lulu!

The sun’s gone in again here! I actually feel quite cold!

Glad you had a great time Andy, I can’t wait for my Britannia cruise. Disappointing to hear about the entertainment, the silent disco would be better in the Crystal Room surely. We had it in the Tamarind on Ventura. I honestly think we had more varied entertainment on Aurora recently. We had a jazz orchestra in the Crows Nest one evening who were good.Also an outside group ‘The Celtic Harps’ as well as a couple of sets by Pulse and that was a four night cruise! I’ve never had time for a film on Britannia before, perhaps I’ll get the chance this time!

I’ve been on 11 cruises now and never had the food offered by the pool!

That’s bad about the excursions! 😞

Morning all, had a busy day yesterday, had my grandson over in the morning ( my son text me the day before could I have him, of course I say - what time- 8am!!) Had a lovely time with him, he has a bit of a lisp now he’s lost a tooth 😁 Then I went to a surprise 30th birthday for my friend’s daughter in a local social club held at lunchtime. John joined us for the last hour after he finished work, plenty of food was left for him! There was also money behind the bar but he was happy with the coffee urn! Then we flew in for a brief-ish visit to mum! Phew! Looks the best day of the weekend today but John is working again. I’ll watch the Liverpool match later. John has tomorrow off but typically the weather doesn’t look too good. Have a good day all, one day we might get a day out!

I used the same photo for my 2022 and 2023 cruises as it took ages to get right and it was accepted both times. I used it again this year and she took a new photo of me this time! 🤷‍♀️

But in that Jamie one he says ‘is this the worse cabin at sea’ but if you watch it he loved it.

Morning all, my busy day yesterday meant I slept much better, unfortunately John’s alarm was a rude awakening at 4.30am! If he’s awake he’ll turn it off but he was fast asleep today. I’ve been dozing since then. Yesterday was lovely, today it’s rainy again! At the outlet centre I was very pleased to get a new dress for my cruise and took this picture below. Had a fun filled evening with my friends last night.

We don’t drink less than we want but never find the package good value for us!

Interesting Selbourne. Hope you enjoy Queen Anne!

We boarded Aurora on the Thursday before Easter. I was very pleased to get a 12-45 embarkation time. Don’t know how we managed it but we pulled up at CPS bang on 12-45, they actually took quite a while to get to us which surprised me as normally it’s so quick. We didn’t walk up to the terminal door til about 1-15 - the queue outside was quite long but I said to hubby don’t worry they should let us on. We were just going in after showing them our boarding time and I heard a man call out ‘anyone with 2pm or before you can now go in!’ I was glad we didn’t arrive later, there were hoards of people waiting outside!

Morning all, unlike Lincslady I had a rotten night! My mind wouldn’t stop so I didn’t fall asleep until gone 2am 😖 Busy day here though, luckily I’m working from home today. It’s John’s day off today so as soon as I finish at 1pm we’re nipping to an outlet centre for a quick lunch and hopefully cruise clothes shopping! Then off to visit my mum THEN I’m eating out at 6pm with my old Bank friends, 5 years ago today we were made redundant! Re Queen Ann , there is an event today for vloggers and they’re staying overnight so there should be lots of videos out soon!

It does look like a Holland America ship!

fabulous, enjoy!

Lovely! What ship are you on?

Afternoon all, stop press we actually have some sunshine! I’ve been fed up of the non stop rain. Been making calls this morning to do with Mum’s admin! For example her council tax reduced to single person amount then we had two months ‘free’ now the direct Debits have started up again they’ve charged her the higher amount again 😡 It’s never ending …

Evening all, sooo much to catch up on! I hope @zap99 is enjoying his cruise, looking forward to hearing how you get on. At my mum’s Home on Friday they ‘went to Turkey!’ The two people who do the activities were dressed as air hostesses and they had Turkish food and belly dancers performed for them! They do some good things. Our grandson lost his first tooth yesterday! We were sent a photo - he looked so pleased with himself! 😁

Just got in in time - Happy Birthday Avril, hope your day has improved 🎂🥂🥳🥂 And Happy Birthday Grandad John 🎂🥳 🍺

I’m on a page on a popular social media site and a couple of weeks ago someone posted the restaurants were available to book! I booked one and then saw everyone complaining they couldn’t book- the P&O site had crashed with everyone booking! We got an email saying if you got the confirmation email (which I did) it was ok. Anyway I could see the Limelight and it was Kevin Simm but couldn’t decide whether to book it or not. I didn’t know his name but recognised his photo. He used to sing with Liberty X and now with Wet Wet Wet. Lots of people said they enjoyed his show.

I’ve been in a forward balcony on Lido deck on Ventura, the only minor problem was we had the gym above us so could sometimes hear weights banging on the floor.

You should try Ventura again. Our first cruise was on Azura, our second on Ventura. If was freezing on our late April cruise to Norway and everyone sat in the bars for sailaways and took up all the window seats! I didn’t love it as much as Azura. Since I’ve been on two more on Ventura (in warm weather) and love her again! Best Glasshouse.

Ooh our June cruise goes to 3 of those ports, I’ll keep you posted! ☺️
