The actors look very much like our Royal family who we love. I thought it was great and funny and find it wonderful the UK seems to be more tolerant on social media with the current situation in the Royal Family. So much of what we now post in US is “Fact Checked” and doesn’t meet community standards and deleted.

There is talk of Disney doing a staycation from Newcastle so we are waiting for details for that. Have you anything booked yet Sue?. Graham. Not yet Graham, we've got a cottage booked in Cornwall in July which we're very much looking forward too. I will keep my eye on these staycation cruises and may book one in Sept if not too expensive. I was tempted by the Grandeur BGI cruises next year but the prices have gone up quite a bit, also don't really want the faff of getting negative tests to travel. We'll have our new grandchild, due in two weeks, to keep us busy Looking forward to reading reports of the staycation cruises Sue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't use any other social media forums ourselves although I have posted over 200 hotel and restaurant reviews on Tripadvisor.

And, just for you, the chopped liver with horseradish. All the dishes, apart from the matzo "balls" were made by DH. Not much of a "seder" -- just DS and us... The married son is with his wife's very extended family. We'll be traveling tomorrow to see them with our pots and pans... Before and after Chopped liver......swoon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ad looked to me the exact same, and no special wording but... there was one clip where I saw 2 people wearing masks on board. No where else did it show masks, which made me think it was a clip dropped into an old ad. Edited March 28, 2021 by A&L_Ont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Momof3gurlz Posted March 28, 2021 #11791 Share Posted March 28, 2021 As @grapau27mentioned, I also saw where Disney Cruise Line is considering “staycations” where the ship remains at the port with guests staying onboard. Guess I don’t see how this differs much from being out at sea in terms of distancing, etc? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The P&O staycations sail around the south of England and some go to Scotland but everyone must have had both vaccine jabs and not been told to isolate 14 days before the cruise by being in contact with someone covid19 positive. The 3 and 4 nighters have no ports of call. The 7 nighters have 1 or 2 ports in the UK only but you are only allowed off in an organised excursion.

Thanks, I completely misunderstood what Disney is planning. The ships will leave port but guests don’t disembark anywhere. That’ll teach me not to read the full article 🙂. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(pardon my sexist language) The male members seem to be enamored with them. Some of us that have to cook meals regularly, really feel no need to plan that far ahead for dinner or cook anything for that long, have the additional prep work or more pots and appliances to clean. Besides purchasing additional specialty appliances and a vacuum sealer and vacuum bags. That's okay. But I am sincerely glad that those of you that have a Sous Vide and associated accessories, enjoy it and get a lot of use out of it. But it is not really our thing. No cleaning with a sous vide, that's the beauty of it. Throw bag away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immigration says the crew is working in the US, and need an appropriate visa ($$$) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
