Island Escape thread and other useless info.

[Rebel Rouser]

Probably coming in for the good ship IE if you try and book a cruise for IE for 2013 (nothing / zilch/ zero) you can book the Dream , Celebration & Spirit.

 

The Dream will be in the Caribbean, Celebration & Spirit will be in Arab land.

That's a shame. I think you'll find aspirin will thin the blood better than alcohol, lol.

 

Have a look at this site and go down memory lane.

Moto? is that you second porthole on the left :eek:

[ekco]

Well, I'll tell you one thing. That's def. not me in the pink dress in the 4th porthole.:D:D

 

Why does no one post on this forum? Stop reading you lot and start posting, it's a forum and not a spectator sport.

 

There, I've had my say. I've been dying to say that for weeks.

 

Oh! I'm going to Barbados, funky palm trees. On Coconut Airways, tum te tum, Barbados skies. OH finishes work tomorrow.

 

Off to Thomson forum.

[Rebel Rouser]

Looks who ever it is..is being groped :eek:

 

 

Looks like the last year for the good ship IE :) have said it many time on here and Thomson board. me and the OH said it would be the last time on the good ship this year...onwards and upwards :D FO here we come.

[Rebel Rouser]

Looks like this is the last year of the IE message board..RIP Island Escape :(

[ekco]

I saw that, I wonder if it's true. Are you sure you're ready for FO? I was looking at a late booking 2 week cruise in the Caribbean which was a good price compared with Thomson and they stay in ports of call there later. BUT, reading the forum I was a bit put off my the stuffy dress code and, while I think passengers should get changed into smart casual in the evening, a jacket and tie is going a bit too far. I'm not sure we're quite old enough, no offence, watch the YouTube videos on the Braemar round Britain cruise.

Dear Island Cruises.

 

As a group of 2 - 3 people and thousands of lurkers. Please could you update us on what is happening to the "brand" Island escape.

 

 

Yours Sincerely

Just finished. Off and on with it all day and had to manually copy everything from a backup file that wasn't a backup file in the usual way. Did I get a word of thanks? What do you think? Grrr!!:eek:

[Rebel Rouser]

What system are you running?

[ekco]

What system are you running?

 

He is running xp, whereas I run Windows 7. Most of it is back but some of the programs aren't, I copied them into the program files folder but something's not right. He can get them downloaded again though. All the photos, videos and music are ok but documents are asking for a program to open them. Brain's gone now, I don't know how it became my problem. I did nag him to put a full backup on the external hard drive so now he's paid the price.
