I was 61 in March. I don't mind it too much, 60 is the new 40 and all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in Cornwall at the moment, we didn't stop over in Exeter on the way down this time, so don't blame us.🤣. Those blooming Londoners I'll bet Without reopening the old arguments, infection rates very much depend on the level of testing. When infection levels are low, the difference between 8 per 100,000 and 20 per 100,000 is statistically insignificant. It's the trend that is more important than individual numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of us here that feel exactly the same way, but still contribute. It's always beneficial to get input from non P&O afficionados. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we are testing up to 1.5m a day we can expect lots of cases. 437per 100k is high by any criteria. Jane should still be worried though🤣....25 phew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wouldn't be worried about a figure of 25. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just feel a bit of a intruder, nothing against P and O, just prefer smaller ships with a more international atmosphere. I think many forum members will cruise on various cruise lines, and as a UK cruiser I have always gravitated to the P&O forum mainly because members tend to be like minded, at least when it come to cruising. I have used some of the other cruise line sub forums when I am planning a cruise on that line, but the likes of Celebrity, Princess and RCI forums do, quite naturally, portray a mainly Nth American bias, So I certainly intend to continue using this sub forum as my main cruise info channel, even when I am booked on another line. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Sorry that you have decided to leave us, please reconsider, as you can see we chat about more than cruising particularly at the moment when we can't actually cruise. Many of us cruise with more lines than just P&O Take care. Edited May 25, 2021 by Josy1953 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know crumbs in the hot tub but I can assure you there is no crumbs the way I eat it 😂, anyway long story short is mother-in-law decided she was going to be ill today and I had to call the doctor out and get medication etc , 1/2of the day gone for what wasn’t important situation again , it’s very hard when they have dementia when to make the right calls to the doctor, but as the doctor knows when she is playing me up she does for attention, I’m sure he’s given her some smarties just to please her and give me a rest , it’s been a long 5 weeks with cooking around there’s 3 times a day but hopefully when dad gets his plaster off and a braise put on he’ll be back to cooking again 🙏 anyway I did eventually get in the hot tub with my bubbly and made it before the rain comes on anyway rant over 😤😤 A very belated Happy Birthday Sandra. Sorry you've had such a rubbish day and please do rant - you've got plenty of sympathetic listening ears on here. I hope your evening is good and full of more bubbles. Very best wishes.

I have spent a lot of time sleeping today just feel so drained today but feeling a bit better in myself as time goes on if that makes sense You and Frank take care Look after yourself Kalos - another rest day tomorrow is prescribed!

kalos Posted May 26, 2021 #21348 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Good morning guy's hope you are all well and slept well I think I must have slept so much the day before my body clock said 4am is a good time to be wide awake , so laid there pondering what I had been through and other wonderful mysteries of life such as ... If there is a king and queen size mattress, where would the princess sleep? On heir mattresses maybe ? Why are there so many TV adverts for toilet rolls ? ....Who's not buying them ? Why does anti aging cream have a best before date if it really works These sort of things seem important to us in the early hours don't they. It's still early so I thought I would catch up on the news I was shocked to hear about the COVID virus on Mount Everest. I thought it had already reached its peak. Well it looks to be the making of a nice day so you all take care and stay safe . 13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
