Little Nell Posted January 9, 2014 #51 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Princess banned smoking on balconies a couple of years ago, but strangely, you can still smoke in the casino :eek: That's so they don't need to take a break from betting for a ciggie, Linda. Money always wins :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bridge partner used one inside on the Dream but I can't remember where. On the subject of e cigarettes, a neighbour of ours is using e cigarettes to try and stop smoking. Someone complained at work that he was using his e cig inside and he has to go and stand out side with the smokers now :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davecttr Posted January 11, 2014 #64 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Just got a 2 grades free cabin upgrade for my upcoming Oceana cruise, plus the £150 extra on board credit for owning 100 Carnival shares. Best investment i have ever made with return equivalent to over 20% PA interest tax paid :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seasider1956 Posted January 12, 2014 #66 Share Posted January 12, 2014 smoking outside is a perfectly law abiding happy pastime for some....actually....I am a non smoker.....in fact I dont have any bad habits at all (wicked grin) but mrs me is a smoker...she can happily (legally) smoke anytime she likes when outside in the fresh air as far as I am concerned ….its called tolerance of others (especially important when living in the close confines of a cruise ship filled with all of life) she does try to be considerate when smoking and doesn’t like to smoke around others even when outside ( has been pilloried for it so many times) I dont like people who barge past me (or others...elderly others!) when on the stairs....but I am not about to start a campaign to ban more than 2 people on any flight of steps at any one time:rolleyes: i do believe that p&o and other cruise lines are considering banning smoking on balconies (mob rule speaks) hopefully we can continue to pick our noses and scratch our butts on our balconies if we wanted to;) Geo I think you might be perfect like myself .:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammers Posted January 15, 2014 #70 Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) I was looking at those shares the other day Dave , may buy 100, seems a good deal to get the extra OBC every time :-) I bought a hundred shares in October 2013, had £150 For our cruise in December, just got another £150 for our next cruise in February and the share price has gone up from £20.89 to £26 :D Terry PS. Forgot to mention, had some great cruises with Thomson but for value for money you can't beat P&O. The ships are far superior to the Thomson fleet and P&O are usually cheaper!

Little Nell Posted January 15, 2014 #71 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I can see that, Hammers. I did look at P&O before I booked Thomson for next year but the Thoms itinerary is vastly superior to P&O and that swung it on this occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Little Nell, I must admit the Thomson Caribbean itineraries are better and there are usually less sea day's to boot. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why we chose it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
