  1. A few years ago, when the pound was about 1 euro, DW said ' that will make the conversion easier'. Very true.🤔
  2. I worked for a German company that required returns for our vans to be in kilometers per litre. We continued to report mpg to our masters. Like our friend on here they were told ' don't you people have calculators'. We got paid for the use of our cars in pence per mile.
  3. In the 70's Mum and Dad got the Mirror and News of the world every Sunday. Once on a visit on Sunday, where's the news of the world Mum ?.....Not buying that rag anymore. They had printed a quite nasty story about Mick Jagger. Long memories those Mums.
  4. In the 50's, Mum stopped buying chicken when Chicken pox was going around. No more monkey curries for us. Can't be to careful. In the bar last night....what bottled larger have you got.....Corona.........WHAT.!!!?
  5. That will save you filling up at 30 quid a time.🤔
  6. It's all relative Graham. If diesel has gone up by 5p a litre and I need 40 litres to fill up, that's 2 quid. If DW skips pudding on Friday night.....sorted🤣
  7. It could have been a pick from a box of chocolates.🤣
  8. We drove past Morrisons in Penzance on Monday. 180.4. today 182.4. I will need to fill up tomorrow. It will probably have gone down by then.🤣
  9. We were on Iona in October, but moved it to Britannia. Another year perhaps🤣
  10. We were on Iona in October, but moved it to Britannia. Another year perhaps🤣
  11. Those people who can't use Google are like that.
  12. Will do. I will be the timid looking bloke getting told to shut up.🤣.We are on the 2 October one. Is that right?.I would like to be sure as asking Ladies husband's out for a drink may be taken the wrong way . 🤣just checked, ours is 223. I think that's a different one to yours.
  13. Our kid is a bit older. We have been on Britannia a good many times and the kids seem to have a good time. Wandering around the ship in the Caribbean dressed as a pirate singing yo ho ho songs is good fun. DW said ' grow up, you'll frighten the children'.☠️
  14. As we are on that cruise, I googled 50%. Astonished to find out that's nearly half. Google has another convert.🤣
  15. Can you get information on Google.?
  16. I guess folk post questions on cruise critic as they not only find the replies useful, but enjoy the camaraderie of fellow cruisers. Being advised not to waste folks time and to ask Google doesn't seem to fit the bill. As we are down in that Cornwall, I asked googly , jam or cream first?. It appears there is no definitive answer. I didn't bother asking about butter, or coffee. 1.6m opinions as it is.🤔
  17. Funny old world. My friend went on Iona and loved it. We thought it was quite ok too. They thought that some of the smaller lines were like a care home. We like Britannia too.🤣
  18. The Queen may well have picked a load of rubbish performers, knowing Charles would have to stay til the end and she could be orft to her pit...,Gary must have been busy.🤣
  19. Spot on. I must make it more difficult tomorrow.🤣
  20. Out to dinner I sunny Cornwall. I wonder if purplesea can guess where.🤔. Slightly more challenging as the picture fell over again...must sort that out.🤣
  21. On our way to St Ives. We are stopping overnight in Bridgwater.......I know let's leave fairly early, we spend a few hours in Weston super mare and have lunch, we haven't been there for years. Not much has changed. Still a typical bucket and spade resort. Nothing wrong with that, but in this woke she is this sign appropriate? 🤔
