Crown Vic

On the Regal around the U.K. Told no bars of soap available…

👍 👍 Thanks. Good wet English weather in Falmouth for a true ‘English experience’ but lots of sun in Cobh. Stay well…CV…

JB, good evening at the Duke. Give our very best to C and J. Cheers…C…

Either or both! There’s about 20 (?) pre-cruise CC-ers meeting at 7 p.m. to say ‘hello’ and have a bite of supper. Guess we’ll be in the back room. Hope you can make it…

Aah! Taylors of Harrogate. Always nice to have a good cuppa…and a biscuit!

Looking forward to thanking you for all the splendid advice you provide. Pity about the RR. Cheers…

Sounds like a plan…CV…

JB, see post #5 under ‘Coach Heathrow to Southampton”. The waistcoat may ease identification but is not truly necessary. Cheers…CV…

👍 👍

JB, if you are available, Wednesday, August 23…Duke of Wellington…7.30 p.m…for a pint and to say ‘hello’. CC get together…hope you can make it…CV…

👍 👍 for Brian. With NCL for 53 years. Also 👍 👍 for GM Alain Magnier. Both super! Great GMs. Excellent dinner companions.

Thanks. Heard that he had left NCL. Haven’t been able to get any further information as to his whereabouts.

Any word on the whereabouts of Kaj Turunen who was, until a few months ago, GM on the PoA? Thanks…

Have used Aqua both to and from Southampton from Heathrow. Good service. No probs at all. Mahalo nui loa…

As long as you are ‘sitting comfortably”… 👍 👍

JB, glad we didn’t get into Mrs Dale’s Diary. My ‘red, white and blue’ comes from growing up with Arsenal and Middlesex. Always enjoy reading your comments and answers on this thread. You are The Man. Cheers..

JB, perhaps a pseudonym…Walter Gabriel comes to mind. Cheers…

👍 👍

Gracious! What’s wrong with haggis? No need to comment as long as you leave bagpipes outta the conversation. Och aye! Cheers…

Gullfoss is worth seeing…IMO. Cheers…

👍 👍 Lock the ol’ smart phone in the safe and enjoy your holiday the ol’ fashioned way. Cheers…

Thanks…but…outta date by a country mile…he’s gotta be somewhere…

Any news on Kaj Turunen who was GM on the Pride of America? Excellent GM and extremely pleasant and personable. Heard he has left NCL. Does anyone have any up to date news on Kaj? Cheers…

Was on the Norwegian Dawn last January. Fog delayed docking for 12 hours as Tampa Bay was closed by the US Coast Guard. Finally docked at 6 p.m. Have a back up plan just in case…

Sailed B2B on the PoA last October. Great way to see the Hawai’in Islands. Being American crewed, the ship board experience is ‘different’ from that of internationally crewed cruise ships. Notice I said ‘different’ not necessarily better or worse. Personal choice! Also sailed on the Pride of Aloha around Hawai’i. If one is concerned about the cost of a land trip, visiting the same ports, versus the PoA, sit down with pencil and paper and list the cost of inter-island travel/transfers, hotels, food and entertainment versus the price of the cruise. Would think that the PoA might come out as a better deal and certainly much more convenient. As the song says “Try it! You’ll like it!” The GM we had, Kaj Turinen, was amazing…but…heard he had left NCL. Pity! Mahalo nui loa!
