Aus Traveller Posted January 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted January 14, 2022 3 hours ago, getting older slowly said: Wasn't Clive building a doomed one....... Don Clive claimed he was building Titanic II, but he didn't even sign a contract with the Chinese shipyard. I think it could have been a publicity stunt.🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MMDown Under Posted January 14, 2022 #7 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Thank you for sharing the links of a Gold Coast couple who are doing 6 or 7 back to back cruises from LA. Good luck to them for their bravery. I wonder how they got insurance I am following a number of blogs of people doing world cruises. How do I turn off the bold? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I was rich enough to afford something like that I don't think I'd lose that sense of joy and adventure when visiting new ports. And even ports visited previously can still provide new wonders to be seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikeanswers Posted January 17, 2022 #21 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I heard someone say "money exaggerates a person" so if you are happy you will be happier, if you are greedy you will be greedier by that logic if you are adventurous you should be more adventurous😂. Mayb there is something to it; Richard Branson still does crazy things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having visited the De Bortoli Cellar Door/Winery out at Griffith, NSW. I can tell you the wine in the 4 litre Premium casks is the same wine as in their bottled Sacred Hill range. Very good value. It is my every day quaffer, I do have some $20 bottles of wine for 'spethial guests.' or if I am going to a good byo restaurant of which there are a few down here. I go out for dinner twice a week, not keen on going out for lunch. Tonight in fact, Kohli's Indian, perhaps a Beef Vindaloo, byo wine job for me. The more you drink the more you save !!
