Cymro1953 Posted April 16, 2010 #26 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Berwyn ,you are better than the sniffer dogs :D :D hope you are feeling better :) mrs,c Yes thanks, just still a bit stiff in the spine in one spot. At least I could sleep this morning, unlike yesterday when my brain was going about 100 miles an hour and had a job. Berwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted April 16, 2010 #27 Share Posted April 16, 2010 According to the AIS site the Costa Europa is now reporting as the Thomson Dream :) My guess is she will leave port today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cymro1953 Posted April 16, 2010 #28 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Well spotted Dave, that was quick. She was still showing as Europa on my screen till now. Berwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted April 16, 2010 #29 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Pity there is no webcam as we could see the officers wielding the cat over the new crew :D Will have to learn how to steer it etc plus which buttons NOT to press, even in a emergency :eek: I wonder if there is a owner manual. Thinks, if this volcano thing continues all those going on the shake down pre cruise will be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinks, if this volcano thing continues all those going on the shake down pre cruise will be disappointed. If there is a manual it'll be pretty thick. Got no time to study it before we go :D My worry is I can't swim and it's a long way to Palma if the volcano keeps going:eek: Just on news, Scottish airspace restrictions expected to be lifted 7p.m. for flights going out into Atlantic area. But Brussels say conditions not improving over Europe :( Berwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRUISIN LINDA Posted April 16, 2010 #33 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Welcome Tractor boy :) Are you from Ipswich?? We are going on her 4th May. Volcano permitting :eek: Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinks, if this volcano thing continues all those going on the shake down pre cruise will be disappointed. If we're using a cat that means we'll be using oar power so we can skip the engine bit of the manual Dave. And if we have a helmsman that uses one of those long handles attatched to the tiller we can skip the steering bit too. We can use the un-needed engine oil to lubricate the shackles of the slav.... sorry passengers. :D Berwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted April 17, 2010 #35 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Drat, missed the departure from Palermo. She was there this morning but is no longer reporting and must have moved out of range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim The Scot Posted April 17, 2010 #36 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Dave :( I take it once she leaves the port theres no way of tracking her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted April 17, 2010 #37 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Now she is back and reporting again :confused: The onboard transmitter must have been switched off, perhaps they needed more coins for the meter. The Palermo ground station has a range of less than 30 miles so once she sails we will only see her for a couple of hours. Then possibly as she passes south of Sardinia, then Palma itself.

davecttr Posted April 18, 2010 #42 Share Posted April 18, 2010 I the first cruise is cancelled they could use her to ferry people from Mallorca to Marseille etc Or she could be requisitioned by the government which might be good or bad :):( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
