hi di hi.

 

Yep, we are on this as well, 4 of us, 2 couples.

 

2 Cabins on Deck 4, mid ships I think.

 

I seem to reacll a previous post from you about this cruise and think maybe you are on deck 4 as well? I was asking about the BOB conditions

 

BOB was a slight worry but decided wrist bands, stugeon, ginger bics and Glenfiddech will see us / me thro.

 

You will probably recognise us, as on FO theme nights we do get stuck in.

 

My wife a squaw with pigtails, me all black and a cowboy hat, other guy cowboy hat with an arrow thro his head, he nearly got stick in lift on Braemar it is that big:)

 

My 60th whilst we are away so there better be a "surprise" bash or there will be trouble:D

 

We all enjoy the dancing as well so will be on the old dance floor for a cha cha cha etc

 

Take it easy.

Yes we are on deck 4 midships as well, we could be neighours!!! i will certainly keep a look out, especially for the large hat lol.

 

We like to join in as well and i am looking for a new costume for the country and western night, watch this space;)

[1160451]

Could be like the OK Coral on the C&W night.:D

 

Carb'n nights we go for the full blown tops and dreadlocks with sun shades:)

 

Take it easy.

[amberline]

Think I may be able to work out who is who lol :D

[amberline]

He He started shopping for cruise already :)

[1160451]

Quite right, never too early as my wife keeps telling me. But what about the Xmas sales.

 

Our first time cruising from the UK, so usually we are into the warm weather gear as soon as we get off the plane, but cruising from Liverpool she apparently needs another full wardrobe of clothes to cover the 3 days going out before we hit warm weather:)

 

Take it easy

[cannockfrodo]

We're on this one too. Deck 3 midships.

Our first with FO and we're looking forward to it.

 

How do you know what the theme night is ? We've not been informed or is it a standard ?

 

Guessing it'll be tough to miss that hat !!:eek:

[cannockfrodo]

Just checked...we too are on Deck 4....4050 to be precise.

When we went on the Braemar, there was a country and western night and a red, white and blue night. I think that is the same on all Fred's ships.We loved the Braemar, we have booked again for my birthday in February:D

[amberline]

We are in 4059 and our friend is in a single cabin on same deck (we could have a party lol)

 

Theme nights are standard on Freds ships and we love to join in.

 

counting down to cruise already, xxx

[1160451]

Hi di hi

 

Yes theme nights seem to be pretty standard with FO. Our friends have cruised with them more than us but they tell us it's the same every cruise.

 

We had huge spinning and flashing bow ties last cruise but the waiters liked them so much we gave them away, so we have to think of something else for the Red, white and blue night.

 

We love theme nights, but we also enjoy the Formal nights and come to think of it we enjoy the semi formal nights as well, so in fact we enjoy every night:D

 

Deck 4 seems pretty popular doesn't it.

 

Take it easy, once Christmas is out of the way its only 3 and a bit months and a stone to loose in preperation.

[amberline]

103 DAYS TO GO, Yippee:o:p;):o

[amberline]

11 weeks today and counting

[1160451]

Wow that close better get the suitcases out, and start munching ginger biscuits in case of swell in the BOB.

 

11 weeks to go and 5 pounds to loose for "ideal cruise start weight".

 

Take it easy

[amberline]

Think its time to start deciding what clothes to take, decisions desisions lol;)

[Howmuch]

[1160451]

Hi

 

Half the FO posters on here seem to be on this cruise :)

 

6 weeks to go and 4 pounds to "cruise start weight".

 

Started to be told not to wear things "if I want them for the cruise" so it must be getting close.

 

Take it easy.
