  1. Next time you take your car out ,can you get me next weeks lottery numbers 🙃
  2. Fair enough , Mystic mother never said if breakfast was included and she needed £10 each way taxis but the price she has been quoted for 16 nights in August for £152 is a good price with a room for the night .
  3. Point I was getting over is Mystic Mother has got a good deal at £152 at the time she booked and going on Elizabeth House web site ,they do not show park and stay prices. You can book parking only or book a room . Site states "phone us for parking prices if you stay with us " So to me Mystic Mother has got a great price for £152. I agree with you booking parking only at Elizabeth House then your quote is far better, if you wanted parking only .
  4. Thinking back to when I was a nipper ,we had trackless trolley buses with overhead wires. We had battery operated milk floats that delivered milk in glass returnable bottles. This was in the days before our green and pleasant land decided to get rid for a few decades. As for us we like our little old Suzie ,she maybe coming up 9 year old but .. She's ULEZ compliant, can run us from home to Southampton and back on one tank of petrol. Sails through Mot's , needs new tyres now and again wipers etc like all other cars do. We are happy with her and see no reason to part company and if we did, doubt it would be for an electric car at the moment . Our personal choice .
  5. With an overnight stay £152 for 16 nights aint too bad . I see your comparison is car park only Tom ? 🤔
  6. Think I read about that ? 😉.. Two electric car owners were seen today fighting over a charging port. The police have said it was a charged environment and they will amp up patrols around area. A lot of witnesses were shocked and some saw someone socket to the other.🙃
  7. Yep just been reading the same . Also the sad news about a guy rowing his boat over the Atlantic from Porthmadog, set off on his 2,942-mile solo challenge from Gran Canaria to Barbados last month to raise money for two charities. Has passed away. The boat he used was Welsh named Mynadd,.
  8. I was advised years ago never to date a tennis player ,as love means nothing to them 🙃
  9. Never knew she was playing tennis down there 🙃😉 @Peanut006 Glad to read your mums back home ,she's getting there 😃
  10. Those bad folk can take my Cat converter as my car don't need one .🙃
  11. Yes I remember that but it worked much better if it was unused 😉
  12. I suppose it all comes down to what you want personally ? Some folk want to be parked near the ship others happy to park in the multi saving a few quid. We've been there and done both, nowt up with either but for us we now use the Holiday inn or cricket ground Hilton.We do this for several reasons ..1/ We like to travel the day before and walking distances or carrying bags is a no due to medical reasons . Wake up next morning ,have a nice breakfast and at our time jump into a taxi provided and whisked to the cruise terminal doors ,suits us fine . That's what it's all about what suits you ,yer make your choice . Every choice has good and bad ,even the Hilton , you keep your keys and its covered with cameras and a coded release barrier but on the down side Do not park under the trees or near the golf range 😬 @devonuk If you don't mind me asking, where do you choose to park for your cruises now ? 🙂
  13. A frosty -1.c here but a bright morning . We are both old enough to have a bus pass but haven't bothered as when you walk past our bus shelter it doesn't have a time table, they have a calendar instead The service is really that bad . Did I ever tell you about a bloke that got the bus every day and always bought two tickets. The bus driver intrigued one day decided to ask: "why do you always buy two tickets" and the man says: " well its simple I put one ticket in my left pocket and one in my right, that way if i lose one I still have the other " and the driver asks: " And what if you lose both tickets?" And he says " Oh don't worry i have a bus pass " 🤣 Have a lovely Sunday everyone .🙂
  14. MLT1105 Now pushed back and on taxi to the runway . https://www.flightradar24.com/MLT1105/34207068
  15. MCR Airport now showing going out tonight 8 pm
  16. We had to be at our meeting point for 7.45 and with the MDR not open before 7am ,we would have had a rush and been clock watching . As we were up, we were in the buffet for 5.45 and had a cuppa and fruit and cereals that they were just putting out. This left us loads of spare time and there was only one other guy sat having a drink when we were in there . Plenty of time to go clear our safe and collect all our bags from our cabin .
  17. Good morning , 1.c frosty and sunny start to our day . Funny how things go full circle ,how we had our mums worrying about us when we were younger and before you know it the tables are turned as they are older ? Hope @Peanut006 was doing ok when you went to see her last night and glad to read @P&O SUE mum was ok and sent home by the Hozzie 🙂 Hope everyone has a good day .Take care !
  18. We used the Daily Sport which had scary stories about sprouts that attacked folk walking up their own garden path . Thinking back I would sit there crapping ..Oh wait a minute 🙃 Unlike Avril, we were far too poor to afford a hook we just had a tack 😉
  19. Never mind the buzzcocks but what about getting your plumber to check your ballcocks 🙃
  20. Great news ,hope her choice of food improves now. Onwards and upwards 😃
  21. Same here using Holiday Inn or the Hilton cricket ground both with taxis and breakfast included. Now we are both retired and not tied down with work ,we like to expand our holiday by staying the night before, makes it more relaxing start. We too used to use Penguin Parking and found the very good . The only fault with them is should you need to cancel , they do not do refunds at all , apart from £20 in the first 14 days of booking but having more time on our hands and wanting a pre hotel stay the first two above suits us fine .
  22. The chemist we used was very close by and handy for you folk who may need more headache/ sea sickness tablets . Will put a google link for anyone's need of a chemist . https://www.google.com/maps/@28.4705675,-16.2473615,3a,75y,200.88h,94.5t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sprkDd6Qe82VTWabzOhqlKg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?entry=ttu
  23. Not sure if always but on our two weeks we were smack bang outside the Terminal de Cruceros de Tenerife . The new buildings were still fitted out with office and shops but was very handy for the shops /bars over the road .
  24. Yes they were fitting some of the shops out a few weeks ago and putting to let signs up .
