mancunian Posted June 26, 2004 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2004 I am sorry not to have replied before. I have had a lot of trouble with my ISP connection and when that was sorted I was unable to log on here. However, I hope I have caught up with you before you go off to your next cruise on Pride of Aloha. Yes we too have had a letter from Fred Olsen and we were very pleased. We feel they have tried hard to put things right. We have decided to go on the Black Watch on the 17 December on a three night cruise to Rouen. We like Rouen and also the sail up the Seine. We have however, put first sitting dinner this time. Angela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mancunian Posted July 22, 2004 #4 Share Posted July 22, 2004 David - read your Pride of Aloha review - your last three cruises have not been exactly straightforward have they, what with the delay on QM2, the cruise from Hell on Fred Olsen and now Aloha. Have you decided which cruise you are going to use your coupon and refund on with Fred Olsen. We are now all confirmed on the Rouen mini on Black Watch in December. Perhaps we will see you there.

mancunian Posted August 15, 2004 #8 Share Posted August 15, 2004 We got back last night from Scotland. I had seen your previous message but unfortunately for some peculiar reason I was unable to log on. A big coincidence. We too are in an obstructed view cabin - number 8006. I don't think this obstructed view matters at all. A lot of the sailing time it will be dark and for sailing up the Seine in the daytime if it is too cold on deck we shall enjoy the very nice panoramic lounge at the top. Yes it would be great to get on the same table again. Unusually for us we have booked first sitting - partly because it will be dark so might as well, but also partly thought this cruise might attract large parties being so near to Christmas and might be noisier at second sitting. At present we are on countdown for the end of September and our three weeks on Marco Polo - well 19 nights but we spend the first two days in a hotel in Athens. Look forward to seeing you again.
