We go in to it every few days but to no avail. I'm not planning to get off much on this one. Just a bit of rest and relaxation, hopefully a bit less pain everywhere. Seeing pain man Tuesday but whether he can help we are not sure, but it is his speciality. I saw him a while back but unfortunately he cannot prescribe drugs in in the strength required. Hopefully he will point me in the right direction. I have the Plus Package so it could be champagne all the way!!!!!🤣 That's my plan anyway.....

We wore a tee shirt and fleece. We left the packing decisions until very late as the forecasts kept changing Stornoway is a nice town to walk round, but as we did that last time we did an excursion to the north of the island Nice photos @Dermotsgirl 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I post photos including food because lots of nice people like yourself like seeing them and it keeps the daily thread moving along but some comments on here make me wonder why I bother being on here unfortunately and not for the first time I feel like calling it a day on here. My American and Canadian friends on HAL and RCL never make uncomplimentary comments about photos. Spain deserved to win but the time wasting,faked injuries, getting opposition players booked was like watching the worst of men's football. Graham xx Don't know how to tell you this Graham but not everyone likes to eat a lemon.......KEEP POSTING😁 See this Instagram video by @ilovemyretrieverdog: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cg4hbJtJ5fV/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet Edited August 20, 2023 by Rupert2251 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will keep quiet for a while, as I don't like upsetting anyone, least of all the nice people on this thread. If it was just my food I would laugh but I said it was a lovely meal with my wife and our Sarah. Sarah had kindly paid for it for our wedding anniversary. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just post what you want to post please.. Thank you Bob. I post lots more photos on HAL and RCL but i don't like to show favouritism so I post some on here too.

I hope you have a wonderful time regardless of if you stay on board or go ashore. Fingers crossed that the pain man finds a way to help you and that will be an added bonus for you as you set off on your cruise. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lincslady Posted August 20, 2023 #48985 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I'm sorry to have upset you so much, Graham. Obviously lots of people put fish and chip photos on here; it was just a pity I didn't have the sense to keep quiet or say it at a different time. You are much more important to everyone on the P and O boards than me, so I will as I said keep quiet, at least for a while. I have appreciated the kind messages you always put on here for everyone who has problems or sadness, including me. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have appreciated the kind messages you always put on here for everyone who has problems or sadness, including me. I have to say you should not under estimate yourself. Everyone, no matter who, is equally important be it on this thread or elsewhere on the forum. If everyone thought someone else was more important than they are there wouldn't be many people on any thread. Your opinion, no matter on what, is equally as important as the next man's and you shouldn't feel guilty. It is very sad that one post is leading to people who are good friends to feel they shouldn't post and the whole point of this thread is at risk of undermining itself by accident. Time for everyone to take a deep breath, shake hands (metaphorically) and move on. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One website said Stornaway 6 - 10 degrees. I think I will pack 4 or so jumpers and rewear them if need be The weather in Stornaway is changeable so take layers and light water proofs. The scenery is stunning, you can poke a stick at nice views. Lewis Castle is walkable from the port but don’t get too excited, it is more like a home than an actual castle but does have some really interesting flora in the grounds. There is (or at least was) a really good Harris tweed retailer half way up the road to Lewis Castle. You can get amazing authentic (look for the the little symbol on for authentic goods on everything form jackets to handbags. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
