  1. Unless it's an old Michelin one I wont be bidding.😇
  2. Since there are no new ships in the pipeline or planned, then I assume the secret will be something to do with Nicole Scherzinger and her new Shhhh entertainment.
  3. Don't care for silly Apples with all their own connections that cost a fortune to replace, much happier with my user friendly Samsung and it's dead simple Android OS.
  4. Surely diaries on your phones are OK for daily use, but much more fiddly for looking at a monthly view, and it's much more difficult to share a phone, than it is to share a calendar.
  5. I remember we once moved 10 days before christmas, mind you we were only 38 at the time, so still fully fit and raring to go, unlike our creaking joints nowadays.
  6. I was using it to highlight the issue you raised, anything wrong with that?
  7. If that is the case, then what excuse did the senior member of hotel management give for P&O not switching acceptable staff onto Azura in exchange for those not meeting this "visa" requirement?
  8. I think that P&O left the interior decor of Ventura and Azura much more like the Princess ships, which IMO are more glitzy than the 3 newer ships which, again IMO, have ended up looking much more like a John Lewis department store than a typical American style cruise ship. As a result they do appeal to us far more, however without a major refit of the cabins, including far bigger flat screen TVs, then I don't think we will be considering any future bookings on them.
  9. I use the same site, but I have never seen specific times on P&O cruises. However your printout looks slightly different to the ones I see, I wonder if there is more than one way to access the data?
  10. Have you never found it difficult to get 2 seats together, apart from ones with a pillar obstructing the view, when you arrive only 5-10 minutes before the show starts?
  11. I can't say that I have ever been able to identify an accent when listening to most music, except where the singer is deliberately emphasising it.
  12. It will be London centric, anything north of Watford ceases to be of interest to the media.
  13. It is only available in the glasshouse. But I was using it as an example of why some people prefer to drink a reliable favourite inexpensive wine, rather than risk getting one of the 10-20% dodgy bottles of expensive French wine.
  14. Have you asked at reception what the numbers of staff on board are, and checked this against the advised staff numbers? Or is this just your opinion?
  15. I would drink Jamshed red with everything, because I love their wines. Why risk the possibility of a dodgy expensive french wine, when you gcan guarantee satisfaction every time.
  16. Once you know you will not be attending I would recommend that you cancel your booking, that way it will allow someone else to make a reservation.
  17. Did you complain on the cruise where the service was unsatisfactory, that's the only way to let the hotel management know things need improving.
  18. I think it depends how much shopping you have. I have a mid sized Sainsburys almost on my doorstep, so tend to make several small shops over the week where a self serve till is far more convenient. But when I do a full shop with a trolley, then I also prefer a manned till. So I hope that supermarkets continue to offer both.
  19. I wonder if @zap99 will be well enough to open his wallet at the restaurant?😎😇
  20. That contraption looks rather like a large touring caravan, and the antennae more like chimneys, or maybe the escape pod for any Italian Captain,
  21. On our very first 4 night Bahamas cruise on Carnival in the 1990s, that is all the cruise director seemed to do at every occasion.
  22. We dont care for overnight stays, or 2 full days in port. As wheelchair users we have no desire to dine ashore, or to explore the night life, and much prefer an extra different port day. So we avoid booking cruises that do have overnight stays.
  23. Do you think there is any chance they will scrap the new system and go back to the old included one?
