Thought when you put "and .." you meant the Covid booster . At least you had a nice cuppa for both being very brave people 😉

We used to guess what was on the menu the next day ,if the carrots were not going down in the buffet or the chicken thighs ,we were not surprised to see carrot & coriander soup and chicken curry on the menu the next day. Certainly not the scrapings off some body's plate. I think the origins of the roast beef dinner has been around quite a while. Old Henry 8th was partial to a bit of roast beef back in the 1400's as was his royal body guards who were also partial to it as well ,hence the name Beefeaters .

My turn tomorrow , were you a big boy and had them in same arm ?

Agree with Jane ,if the weather is bad where you are and you have no real reason to step outside ,stay in and stay safe . Do you ever get that feeling ,it's going to be one of those days ? 😉🙃

No your not being unreasonable , holidays come with expectations of whats to come. I would be tempted to take your post and fire a few e-mails off with it's contents to the complaints and Mr Ludlows dept @p&o . I'm sure some other posters will be along with the best places to send your complaint to. Hope you get sorted .

We bought a Lancaster Solar USB Camping Table Lamp for such events. Can be charged via a USB as well as sun light . Glad you now have your power back on .

What be this evil substance's you talk of ? Marzipan,glace cherries and candied peel😲 Never been a fan of icing sugar either. Ironic thing is I have to avoid sugary things for medical reasons these days 😒 Glad your feeling better , must admit I felt all over the place as well. Joking apart ,take it easy , my o2 levels were low for well over a week .

Morning , 9.c and calm (possibly before the storm) I like reading books, "How to wake up refreshed " that was a eye opener " My latest is "removing super glue from your hands" finding this one hard to put down.😉 Hope you all have a good day 🙂

I remember our local pub having a Halloween party ,everyone had great costumes, a lot tried giving me a hard time as I dressed as normal and told them I was a werewolf . They complained that I didn't look like one until I explained tonight is not a full moon 😉 Have a good time 🙂

I cannot help you with the cases but if you have the actual time of the phone call and the guy was rude,then do another e-mail putting in a complaint to p&O. I had similar with the AA a few years ago when I was with them. The renewal quote was a lot higher than the pervious year. I was told "We are not a charity, why do you expect lower prices,when we give you such good service " When I tried to explain ,I had been told to ring if I was not happy and I had never claimed in over 20 years. He just cut me short and told me he thought the price was good and try elsewhere if not happy . Would not give his name or put me through to his manager . The AA rang back and said they were sorry after playing back the recording of my call and said that person no longer works for us and gave me a quote £25 less than the year before . People at work have a right not to be abused , just like we do when calling them . Don't let them get away with it !

If it snows they all look clean and tidy 😉 Not much chance of that today 6.c fog/mist and a weather warning for rain.

Yeah that's what the fitter said and the good news is it's covered for the next 5 years . Went for the Ideal model , same brand as the old one that lasted almost 30 years . All I need is him to come service it at least once a year .

Another one who would book the Ageas as said above the taxis were spot on and car parking plentiful . Nothing much around but a 5 minute run in the car takes you to a nice pub (West End Brewery) This has reasonable meals at a fair price ,unlike the hotels nearby . We would use again .

Try telling the Baltics no early boarding, you could find they are elevated to Ballistic level.😉

Whilst I have our gas engineer here ,who is finishing off with our new fitted boiler . I have asked him about our annual boiler service . He wants £40 for it's first service and then £60 there after the following year . He's a one man band ,so maybe have a shop around away from the big boys .

Morning 4.c this morning ,sat enjoying a nice cuppa , having a glance through the papers. I see Michael Caine at the age of 90 has said he's going to retire . Not a lot of people know that.🙃 Have a good day !

With Cunard we had reached the dizzy heights of "First timers " We got robes ,slippers and a nice bottle of plonk chilling in the fridge .

Mrs K has dug this out from a site she uses ,they make out it is normal routine work.🤔 As for land based restaurants ,we were in Gibraltar and coming down the main drag there was a gully pump wagon that was sucking up sewerage out of a man hole. Whilst this was going on they had street diners sat less than 10ft away eating and a waiter trying to get more punters in for a meal 😲 Smelt awful .

Where have you moved to ? Cos by my reckoning that's -13 ,c 😲 Wrap up really well and take care 😉

Great to see you had a great time ,I said to Mrs K that I thought you were away . She asked what makes you think that ? Apart from the lack of McBreakfast's by the sea and posting late in the day ,nowt really 🤣 Great to have you back ,wrap up well and keep warm 🙂

We had a young couple move in next door, both are self employed, and have 3 kids. They had a loft conversion to give more space . As we have big long gardens he had a man cave size of a porta cabin built with a power supply at the top away from the houses . He had a bar with music centre etc and uses this as a workplace /relax centre. When doing this work he always let us know in case of any noise . So there is always other options available other than an extension .

Morning a chilly 2.c with frost on the grass,what a difference from last week ! Have a good day everyone 🙂

Hope you and Brian have lovely breaks away . We like Rouen cathedral ,last time we were there the choir was practicing Oh Holy Night , it made your hairs stand up .
