Hello new host, whoever you are.

[travel-to-go]

Yes, I am flying... but I have some VERY nice seats so I'm actually looking forward to that part... check them out

 

Okay, Dare I ask what it would cost one way to England from ANYWHERE in North America? Would I have to fly to Toronto first? Would you adopt me? Oh, yes, I realize I am no doubt older than you. but we could work that out!

 

 

I want, I want!

And how do two people talk to each other that way? Via the screens? By telephone? and it looks like when they fold into a bed it would block the aisles!

 

<sigh>

Why wasn't I born rich instead of beautiful and brilliant?

 

Karie,

Okay, I'll settle for one of the three!

Ye gads...even I'd fly again if it was like this!!

 

Cheers, Penny

[Casshew]

Well, actually I use my points so they are free! but, if I had to pay (god forbid) they would cost about $4200.00 one way.:eek:

 

The set us is very strange if you are travelling with someone, there is a high privacy screen so you couldn't speak to each other LOL The seats angle away from one another, it's weird looking - but I can't wait to give it a go! I believe you can phone the other seats for a chat. My daughter can't wait to try them out too, they have heat and massage!

 

Oh, and my husband is actually open to me adopting a woman. :rolleyes:

Do they fly to Barcelona?

[patwell]

Tell your husband I'm very available...and I've got a VERY evil twin...:eek: I hope he likes silver hair...the blonde part left a while ago....Good grief...those are some seats!!!

She's adopting me first!

 

Tell hubby I'm lot's of fun, And I'll try not to teach your daughters all of the evil things I know! I'm a virgin, really! Just ask my ex-husband! <G>

 

Karie,

Who realizes I'll be passed over for the skinny one with silver hair, which is almost like being blonde, only older <boo, hoo>

They look even more comfortable than the ones on British Airways, and I do like those...

[happyscot]

Besides, don't you think it's about time we had an official CC Song? And what better time to introduce it than on my birthday??? We can rehearse the night before..

 

M-L

 

 

 

Woke up at 3.30 with a song in my head. Spent two and a half hours trying to get rid of it, without success. I'll write it down, that'll work.

 

It's to the tune of that Amurican patriotic ditty which starts "America, America" and then goes on about freedom and democracy and all that other stuff they paint on the side of bombers. It'll only work if you sing it to yourself with a full orchestra and over-the-top choral harmonies.

 

A humble offering then, gentle Cunard folk:

 

 

Cunardians, Cunardians

Sailors of the Queens.

We cross the oceans mighty

On the best ships ever seen.

We all like gin and tonic

We all have silly laughs. (insert chorus of silly laughs)

We all wear dinner jackets

Even in the bath.

 

Our leader is Sir Martin

He is a talking cat.

He likes to meet the Captain

He likes to tell him that:

We're Cunardians, Cunardians

We all know lots about wine. (big finish now)

Cunardians, Cunardians

Cruisers of the Line.

It seems that Host Andy is a difficult guy to track down. Perhaps he could be tempted out of hiding by a Haiku or two (wow - that rhymes. Look at that HS, I'm a poet too). Here's my contribution:

 

Andy is our host

We cannot lure him to us

We drift, rudderless

It's too earrrrlllyyyy. I'm going back to bed. How does the haiku thing work anyway?

What the hell are you doing oot yer pit at this time o' the morning?!! Brenda putting you under pressure is she?

 

How does the haiku thing work anyway?

 

Three lines with 5,7, and 5 syllables respectively. Doesn't have to rhyme.

Either that or it's an Aberdeen Angus on top of Ben Nevis.

[pnhmrk]

Could we just lend them out instead??? Or rent them???

 

Matthew, Happy Scot - do you want to become rent boys?:p

Do you get the impression I like those seats as well:)

You would hope that by the time we reach post 100 in a thread to welcome hip he'll have put in an appearance.

This is turning into another thread where I keep bursting out in laughter for no apparent reason (if you're not reading CC as well). I've just done that here:)

[travel-to-go]

HS,

You've outdone yourself (as usual!)

 

Haikus- I like that Jimmy.

Let me give it a try-

 

 

We wait-breath bated

For a host who never comes

Disappointment-yes

An elusive moderator, Host Andy

Who, for all we know could be Gandhi,

Was welcomed aboard,

But we were ignored

While he took the huff with his candy

 

We tried to bring him dialogue

Talking of pets both cat and dog

He still would have none of it

And we cared quite a bit

Though Andy was deaf as a log

 

Threads were banished to boards abroad

By the police who substitute God

But we carried on writing

With humour quite biting

And Andy did not give a nod

 

They threaten to make us be mute

With our subversive humour, so cute

Perceiving a danger

With no Lone Ranger

Or Tonto to go in pursuit

 

But fear not, the answer is clear

Host Andy is does not hold us dear

The board carries on

With Host Doug gone

And the loonies in charge with no fear

I absolutely love it Karie. Nice one.

David,

 

I think we must be approaching the point where we must seek a publisher for the first anthology of CC poetry.

 

Jimmy

Who are you calling a "loonie"?:mad:

[patwell]

This place ROCKS!!!!

 

Memo to self...do not read CC while drinking that first cup of morning tea!!

 

How can anyone not see us for the rollicking, fun-loving, madcap bunch of degenerates we are???

 

Jimmy...you might be onto something with this publishing thing...

 

HS...that is ONE fine song...and now I can't get it out of my head:eek:

 

David....another great muse heard from...this is a talented bunch of people Host Andy...wherever you are.

 

Well done folks...at this time of morning my brain doesn't function however I shall attempt later to add my own modest contribution. You know, this is one heck of a way to pass time while waiting for those elusive cruises we have planned.

 

Cheers, Penny

Oh:) you just mean the normal kind of loonie, not the spechul kind you get on some other cruise ships;)

[travel-to-go]

anyone up for it?

 

Karie,

who is hoping to hit post # 100.
