  1. Yes that's a good one - round here if we wanted someone to make us a cuppa we would ask 'are you mashing?'
  2. Round here they are called 'jittys', in fact the local BBC radio station did a 'jittys of Derbyshire' calendar the other year 😊
  3. Well............... I've booked 4 nights in the North East, 4 nights in Wales and 4 nights East Sussex - all before the end of April - so thanks again indiana x Who needs cruises? 😊 ps I DO but a change is as good as a rest as they say 😉
  4. Thank you! I did a quick G**gle and found it - I've just booked my first one and am now going back to find some more 😊 I'm so pleased I saw your post - thanks so much
  5. What a bargain - would you mind sharing what company that is with? We had two days B&B in a LLanberis/Snowdon hotel last week for £99 in total for the two of us and have just booked another two day deal in North Yorkshire next week for the same price. You've got to love a bargain!
  6. And............why do they always wear a scarf to walk to the taxi when they are fired? When they are out and about the trees are in leaf so it is filmed in the Spring/Summer so surely warm enough not to need a scarf!
  7. That's a bargain, I looked at CPS yesterday for a 16 night cruise and they wanted £247 - might have even been £267, I can't remember I was looking at so many cruises/options. I think next time we may try the multi storey car park option but worry that if the port parking has become so expensive lots of other people will do the same and it will be full, Imagine getting down to Southampton for your cruise and not being able to park anywhere 😲
  8. Do you know what has struck me most about this series? The HUGE lips on the ladies 😲 In my opinion its a horrible look.
  9. We were last on her in 2020, has there been a refit since? Aurora is my absolute favourite cruise ship 🛳️
  10. What does budget even mean? I choose to use my 'budget' for 3 or 4 cruises in an inside cabin - the next person may choose to use their 'budget' for 1 cruise in a suite. The thing is we're still all on the same ship, eating the same food, watching the same entertainment and sitting on the same sunbed. I still love P&O 😊 budget or not. It would appear there are a few problems occasionally but are you all not having the same problems with empty shelves in shops or buses not turning up due to lack of staff? The whole world has been through a lot in the past couple of years and I doubt there isn't a person alive who hasn't been affected in one way or another. Hopefully everything will get back to normal sooner rather than later.
  11. I was just changing my bedding and had to smile at the dog walkers outside - it looks like they're off on a military operation - flak jackets with doggy water bottles hanging from them, treats in the pockets, pooh bags, coats for the dogs etc. When I had a dog we put his lead on and off we went (pooh bags in pocket 🙂) The doggy business is HUGE nowadays, near us there is doggy playschool, doggy daycare even doggy cafes. I'm very much a lover of all animals and would have a dog at the drop of a hat if we didn't live in an apartment but I have to wonder where it will all end.
  12. Your sense of humour always makes me smile kalos 😊
  13. Is it me or does this emoji look like someone in their underwear bending over 😀 Time for a trip to Specsavers I think........
  14. Just in case anyone is interested I have seen this soup in B&M today at 4 tins for £4
  15. What does status match get you please? Is it discount on drinks and slippers etc?
  16. So to sum it all up - Some of us have been on the receiving end of bad behaviour Some haven't Some of us have witnessed bad behaviour Some haven't Some of us like P&O Some don't Some of us are nice to other people Some aren't Play nicely everyone and have a lovely afternoon 😇
  17. May be if you, or those you are travelling with, are affected on your next cruise by anti social idiots you won't find it so amusing. People pay a lot of money for their holidays and should be able to enjoy them in a safe and happy atmosphere. Someone suggested earlier that it be made clear before embarkation that anyone displaying serious unacceptable behaviour will be removed at the next port of call - along with everyone on their booking. Great idea.
  18. I hate to admit it but that may be an idea - have some visible security in the more popular bars where bad behaviour is more likely to occur. What a sad world this is becoming - security on a cruise ship 😒
  19. We must be really lucky as on all the cruises we've done we've only seen drunken behaviour once, surprisingly that was on an Aurora world cruise. The two men involved were 'happy' drunks and only in danger of injuring themselves dancing around on the pool deck. Luckily, the ladies they were with took control and removed them to sleep it off. Those of you amongst us who think alcohol isn't a problem wherever you go, cruises, holidays, local pub or town centre you are kidding yourselves. I live in a 'nice' area and go to 'nice' places but there is a generation around at the moment who don't care about anyone but themselves and have complete disregard for anyone else who may be affected by their actions. Obviously they are in a minority but they are there and I can't believe everyone hasn't been affected by them in one way or another. My last short break cruise (not P&O) was a disaster, not drunks but the lack of being able to get a drink. I said on this site at the time that some of the people cruising now are not people I want to be sharing a cruise with. Go on, shoot me down in flames but I'm entitled to my views - as are you all.
  20. Oh, I'm so sorry for assuming. When you talk about 'our Sarah' you all seem so very close. Best wishes for her speedy recovery.
  21. What a shock for you all. I hope your daughter is feeling much better soon x
