I suspect most Captains would allow both to pass them. Thanks.

Bingo great your all set.

I was at our brand new Youth Club we were all convinced WW3 was about to start.

I suspect this reply will depend on the company your cruising with but why not ask if they could possibly get a supply on board for you, of course offering to pay and you still might get it for free. Good luck.

At one time here pleasure craft had to give way to working as in cargo craft I cannot remember is this the case on the European mainland?

Bet he felt just a little outnumbered.

Hope there’s no one attempting to queue jump, patience patience and patience again.

Ohhh another one ‘basement’ - name for bottom deck cabin. Yes flying from Heathrow or any U.K. airport to Paris is fine but a warning not during the business time, fighting the guy in the next seat with a newspaper is not pleasant. It’s a bit like Singapore to Langkawi a hop, skip and back down again. Yes Eurostar is the best.

ural guy what an exciting way to start the next stage of your life and on your own. Enjoy, my DH and many friends actually consider that now the hard work starts. Evidently it can be very tiring to make the most out of retirement, enjoy.

Scenic has just posted a few BF deals through.

Actually for anyone from outside of Europe I can understand that Franski but I would suspect from the U.K. it’s not worth it especially just to Paris.

There is no way DH would even consider a Christmas Market cruise so I am living vicariously through all of our CC members.

Congrats Australia great first hour of cricket to win the WC cricket.

Your right steamboats I got my recipe many years ago when just married. Our version is Mulled Wine although a tasting session between the two could leave you just a little over the top. I do like the sound of your fruit cup so will definitely try it. Thank you. It’s in my recipe book already.

Plus your above reminded me about a completely lost afternoon, on the outskirts of Vienna due to some excellent gluhwein some years ago. I still have an excellent recipe from a German customer when I was in a part time job in my youth. It’s a pretty basic recipe and although it includes water but does say replace with more red wine if required, what!

Completely agree with Kristelle & DougK over the years I’ve seen extra coaches added some removed single person tours the CD’s will try and accommodate everyone. I class my touring as before Knees and after Knees and at one port talk the explanation about the amount and steepness of the cobbled streets I would encounter the next day, on a tour we had put our names down for months before, meant we (or at least I)had to drop out. So don’t despair as soon as you can when the CD is not battling with newly arrived guests etc ask to be remembered for the tour if any one drops out.
I’ve not done the palace with Scenic as I’d done it several times when a lot younger and yes in parts it’s spectacular but there are other palaces there is only (fingers crossed) nor Bratislava. Have a great trip. -
Thank you Notamermaid. This woman has let the side down enormously. The lengths any bridge crew of any vessel have to go through to gain a licence thrown away like that. After all it’s not like your foot slipping off a pedal etc. I’m not surprised about the lock gates needing to be individually constructed how they fit and work is almost an exact science but water is strong and moulds structures to its specifications not ours, so in this instance it will be measure once and again and again until your nearly there and then giggle in situ.

The attitude to dress on board has changed remarkably since I’ve been river cruising and if you think about it, it’s not that strange it’s evolution. I still prefer clean, tidy and comfortable as opposed to dirty, scruffy and dare we say pongy! Although call me interfering but I will still make a gentle remark if say a lady has her skirt hooked up in her nickers, someone obviously is wearing a garment inside out or a (gentle)man has a certain part of his clothing undone - maybe that one I’d ask another man to point it out (no pun intended) all of these I’ve seen more than once, including a great guy with the worst rug I’ve ever seen and he made fun of it, I’d definitely cruise with him again. Funnily enough those whose clothing I would still consider questionable and there have never been many, are those I have discovered to be not who I would choose to sit with. Snooty no way choosy of course I’m on holiday.
Just a quick plea across the board regardless of which cruise company you use don’t push for the dress code to be, as it were downgraded or evened out, I really enjoy shopping for each cruise I take - as of course one cannot be seen in the same attire cruise after cruise after cruise. 😂

You can borrow a phone from reception and I’ve never used roaming. Downloaded using on board Wi-Fi.

Cannot open link evidently because of location issues, never mind. In my years involved with a certain U.K. canal, I have never encountered issues with the running of it until recently and it’s been indicated as Red on a canal section nowhere near a river. I’m now tasked with researching any other instances, busy busy busy!

Sincerely hope it’s nothing like the one a few years ago. Hope all are well.
