Esilef Posted August 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 19, 2017 I'm really struggling waiting for my next cruise. I've planned all my day drips, planned all the logics and now all I can do is sit back and found the months, days and minutes until April next year. I keep on thinking of those days on board. The bands by the pool. The friendly staff and passengers. The warmer weather the sea breeze. The excitement of arriving at the ship and them saying "welcome aboard". What should I do? Do I need professional help of a shrink to get me to imagine myself on the isle of pines? Do I need to get a travel agent? Waiting us just to hard.

GUT2407 Posted August 20, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I was the same. Always looking forward to the next one, or thinking about what we should do next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Seriously people, This is an addiction and there is only one reasonable course of action to treat it. It is quite simple, the addiction needs to be fed, book another cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted August 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 20, 2017 You deifinitely need to book more cruises. One very six months at least. That will keep you busy organizing things. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icat2000 Posted August 20, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Ha. I'm just coming off a 16 month drought. It was torture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 20, 2017 #9 Share Posted August 20, 2017 If it's an addiction then it should be covered by Medicare and all expenses claimable. Try it, I am thinking of registering with the NDIS and see if they have a program for treatment.;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 20, 2017 #10 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Ha. I'm just coming off a 16 month drought. It was torture. Self inflicted, don't you know that you need to feed an addiction or it may be lost forever.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datone Posted August 20, 2017 #11 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Unfortunately feeding my cruise addiction is adding to my weight gain. Now I need to lose the 5kg I put on during my last 2 cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted August 20, 2017 #14 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I think I need another cruise to improve my health then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sparky74 Posted August 21, 2017 #15 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I think I need another cruise to improve my health then. In Victorian novels doctors seems to be forever prescribing long sea voyages for various ailments. If I could find a doctor like that I wonder if I could claim the cruise on Medicare?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishfulone Posted August 21, 2017 #17 Share Posted August 21, 2017 We always seem to find a must do cruise a few weeks before we leave on a trip and it's a mad rush to find the best cabin, sort already scarce money :eek: and lock it in. I reckon we've been in the throes of addiction since we booked the last one and it all gets too much right at the end of our wait to sail :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted August 22, 2017 #18 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Would be good, or to be sent to Brighton (England) for the air. OR like the East Londoners of old, go to Kent, the 'Garden of England' to pick hops for a shilling a day and free fresh air away from the smog and disease of ye olde London Town.:') Cruising was for the rich in those days unless you were on the convict transports to the Colonies.
