The walls are thin!

[L2J]

And what were you doing with your ear to our wall? :eek:

 

Perhaps they were trying to "get in the mood" :p

Remindes me of a joke.

A woman calls the police and says there is a naked man in the opposite window. The police arrive and ask her where he is. She says if you climb on the chair and use this telescope you will be able to see him.

I don't think that the walls are thin. We had a couple by us on the CELEBRATION that were, shall we say, amorous? 2 or 3 times a day, the sound of moaning could be heard, coming through the walls. Not loud, but if you pressed your ear tightly against the wall, you could hear it clearly. ;)

 

Ever try the drinking glass against the wall trick ! :D

On our last cruise, the lady in the cabin next to ours apologized to me and hoped she and her husband didn't bother us with all the "noise" they were making the night before (wink-wink)...they were on their honeymoon...and they were also in their 80's!

 

Fortunately, the walls on Princess aren't as thin as the ones on Carnival. The thought of it still haunts me!

Hey......Bless Em....She was probably just being funny.........But, Heck I hope it's true..........

I'd bow in their presence chanting.................

"Also, there was a reflection and I could see part of them too...from the belly down. Not a good thing!"

 

Don't I know it!

Unfortunately :confused: for me, it was my BROTHER next door!:rolleyes:

Didn't really need to be seein' all of him!!!:p

[BigMember]

Normally my wife would say this, but I will say it for her:

 

 

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! :eek:

[GOTTA CRUISE NOW]

MMMMMmmmmmm HHHhhhhhhmmmmmmm!!!!!:p I must concur!!!:D

There are all kinds out there. The OP description reminded me of my ex-mother-in-law. She breated her husband up one side, down the other, all the time. It was just her way, and he was used to it, did not faze him a bit. Made me cringe, but he was fine, he just went fishing and chewed his tobacco and just ignored her. Maybe that is why they get so loud, because they are not getting through.

 

Anyway, he finally solved they problem by dying young.

We always wonder how some marriages work. Like the Clintons. Maybe this is how their marriage works. It almost sounds like my first marriage (she passed away) not she didn't go overboard. I was quiet and she was, well you aren't supposed to badmouth the dead.

 

 

Reminds me of the old joke Moms Mabley used to tell

 

You shouldn't say anything about the dead unless its good

Well my Ex husbands dead......."GOOD" *LOL*

[Grumpy1]

We had an aft cabin on the Fascination... yes the walls are thin! We could hear the normal conversations in the adjacent cabins quite clearly, and the "other" sounds... yep, she was definitely a "screamer" not a "moaner". We left our cabins to go to breakfast about the same time one morning and I flashed a thumbs up. She giggled.. he said "you guys aren't all that quiet either"....

[makeda]

hummm and all of you folks know the whole story? i thought this was just a post about a unique experience aboard a ship....and then all the weigh-ins on shoulda, coulda, woulda, sheesh

[BigMember]

It's a funny thread. Laugh a little. :D

[L2J]

So what would be proper ettiquette in a situation like that? Should you bang on the wall (no pun intended) or should you just say nothing?:confused:

[BigMember]

Sounds like the next best thing to renting a video! :D

[Chief Cruiser]

And there's always a thread about some guy jumping overboard. Now we know why ;)

 

If that were my wife, "I" wouldn't be the one going overboard!

You're spending the night at a hotel, and the couple next door starts having a screaming match. What should you do?

I like Chief Cruiser's idea. :D

Can we google your first wife and find out why?

 

Ok, that was bad, sorry man.

 

 

I thought this thread was going to complain about the couple next door being loud for another reason. WOW!!! If she got mad over a lost key card (which can easily be replaced at the pursers desk), I wonder what happens when something REALLY serious happens,.....like running out of toilet paper while you're on the throne. :-).

You know what, I don't know if I want a visual of them. But bless them for affirming life.

I guess I didn't listen to her. I tuned her out sometimes which got her more mad. I trying better now but I am a MAN.

[salty dingo]

I can vouch for the thin walls... had a neighbor who was quite vocal in her lovin'... aah ... Ahh ... AAh ... AAA ... well you get the picture. Since we had an inside cabin, it could have been a number of neighbors, so we never really know who (and did not want to!)

 

Those of us who are parents are probably no stranger to "keeping it under wraps" so hopefully the cruisers can do the same for their fellow guests in the next room!!

[VentureMan_2000]

Regarding the wife screaming at the husband all day...

 

Did anyone think to sneak a peak of the cabin to see if there were hand-cuffs attached to the wall, black leather masks, and a leather cropping stick? :eek:

 

Maybe is wasn't as bad for the gentleman as everyone thinks. :rolleyes:

[linbobky]

if all that was going on next my room, i would yell out loud= WAY TO GO MAN!!!!:rolleyes:
