Hello new host, whoever you are.

[Cruachan]

And just what exactly is "Azamara"?

 

Myles,

 

I think she one Big Brother or X Factor or one of those reality show things.

And just what exactly is "Azamara"?

 

Is this a theme night on Celebrity? or perhaps its replacing the Baked A****a parade, or a new name for one of those "whatever of the seas" ships:) ;)

Anyway a special welcome to Host Andy:D

Cheers

Myles

( who rather hopes he was thought of as quite normal, untill he had to ask this question and has probably just blown his cover and now feels like a prize idiot)

 

 

Good Morning Myles:

 

Azamara Cruises is a new cruiseline, a more upscale sister to Celebrity. There are two ships: Journey and Quest. They are former Renaissance ships... sisters to Oceania's three Ren ships. Journey is presently finishing her Bermuda season and then will head down to South America. Quest starts saiing for Azamara in October, exotic Caribbean and Panama Canal. Both ships will be in Europe next summer.

Hi Host Andy and welcome to the asylum.

 

Karie omitted to ask:

 

Formal or informal?

Self tie or pre-tied? (bow tie)

attraction to lifeboats? (Penny will advise)

Dogs or cats?

Stuffed or live animals?

 

We shall assume an aversion to Sir Martin.

Karie,

who started adding to her sig by way of introduction when she was new, and now can't seem to stop

Keep adding to your signature, Karie; I always find it interesting and amusing

[NomDePlume]

Hello young posters, whoever you are,

(I don't recall your screen name)

All my suggestions go to you tonight

I once was a newbie like you

 

Be brave, young posters, you'll soon be a star,

Like KindlyChap, Patwell, the same,

Cling very closely to the topic tonight

I once was a newbie like you

 

Karie,

who NEVER takes her own advice! (Why would I want to listen to a fool? <G>)

 

Wow--that was quick--and pretty good! How about a few more stanzas--anyone?

And let us not forget Malcolm's squirrel and Matthew's Bluey Bear...it's not just cats and dogs here folks.

 

Muuurrr-duuurr, the sequel....the continuing saga of assassination attempts on Sir Martin

 

And I of course, stand available with my cohort in arms Malcolm, for any and all things lifeboat related. Coming soon to a bookstand near you will be our major tome entitled "101 Ways To Make a Lifeboat Feels Homey" ( with a separate chapter solely on the mechanics of dressing for formal night)

 

Cheers, Penny

November 10,2007...the “Affair” continues....

[pnhmrk]

And I won't insult you by saying that we don't bite. Obviously, some of us do. But, even more obviously, we know that hosts are issued really sharp teeth.

 

But I think it's only fair to warn him that we have that cat and it has very sharp claws. Unless he obeys our every command we'll set SM on him:D (Thinking about it SM will love him and work ever harder at wrecking us:( )

[pnhmrk]

Host Andy hangs out over on the Celebrity/Azamara boards.

 

:eek:

[pnhmrk]

Ah, someone else continue for me!

 

Cat lover or hater?

What kind of mascot?

[pnhmrk]

And let us not forget Malcolm's squirrel and Matthew's Bluey Bear...it's not just cats and dogs here folks.

 

And don't forget Annette's Spencer or Julie's Gwen:)

Don't feel too stupid, Myles. I have had a meeting with our rep for Celebrity/RCCL/Azamara and even have books. And I thought it was strictly river cruising in Europe! How stupid is that?

 

Anon,

which is Karie's name when she is embarrassed or can't think of a witty thing to say after her name, or when it's Karie's evil twin posting! <G>

 

P.S. Has anyone noticed someone remarkable by his absence on this thread?

 

Hope it doesn't get deleted or moved...

OTOH, while the cat's away (and I don't mean SM!)

[dougnewmanatsea]

Not stupid, you're just confusing it with Amadeus or Avalon. (Which, I might add, I confuse with each other, and which I think may have been somehow affiliated at some point.)

[pb82]

So far a dozen and a half different posters have responded to my plea, but our new host is not among them. We have Doug's informed suggestion that's it's someone named Andy. But, so far, no Andy.

 

I know how it feels to have wings on your heels,

And to fly down the street in a trance.

You fly down a street on the chance that you meet,

And you meet -- not really by chance.

 

Hey, Andy (?), meet us, please.

 

Paul

[patwell]

I echo Paul....hello??? Is anyone out there? We've all come by to welcome you but you're not there?:confused:

 

Don't cry young lovers what ever you do

Don't cry because I'm alone

All of my memories are happy tonight

I've had a love of my own....

 

Cheers, Penny

Thanks for making me feel better, Doug.

So this Host Andy... Does he really exist? Does he hate us? Is he afraid of us?

Tell him to stop buy and get to know us! (Or will he forthwith end your friendship! <G>)

 

We miss you! Written any new articles lately?

 

Karie,

who definitely is glad to have Doug stop by, but he needs to tell us of his latest writings each time! I LIKE his writings!

And fly through the threads in a trance

And you fly through this one, on the chance he's here

But you don't meet, not, not even a chance

 

Don't cry, young posters, whatever you do

Don't cry as you look through the posts

All of our memories are of Doug from our past

And no sign yet of our young new host

 

Karie,

<sob>

Oh, I just can't go on!

<sigh>

He doesn't LIKE us!

uh-hunh-uh-hunh-uh-hunh <snrrrk>

Hi Andy-Pandy! Welcome, we will be on our best behaviour (even Karie & happy scott)

Shoot, Casshew,

That takes all the fun out of it!

 

Why don't you join us on the April 12 crossing. We could have fun!

 

(But then, you probably wouldn't want to expose your daughter to the likes of me, no?)

 

Karie,

who is ALWAYS perfectly well behaved. (It's her evil twin that causes all the ruckus!)

 

Honest!

[Piton1]

It looks like it's time to send Happyscot over to the Celebrity board. Matthew can go as backup! It will be weeks before they recover.;)

 

Paul

[NomDePlume]

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

[legallady]

Don’t lurk, dear Andy, whatever you do

Don’t lurk because you’re afraid.

All the C-posters are waiting for you

As Host, you should not evade!

 

Carol

 

(How 'bout some Cole Porter or Gershwin next?)

[Casshew]

Shoot, Casshew,

 

No no! don't shoot me,:eek: I'm a nice person :D

 

 

 

Why don't you join us on the April 12 crossing. We could have fun!

 

 

No doubt we would have a wonderful time! :) Unfortunately, I cannot afford April because my August 08 crossing + 5 Nights in NYC + 5 Nights in London + flight to NYC + home from London is costing a small fortune. :eek:

Don't know about that, I've just been there (& Azamara) to have a look - its scary:eek: they have rules :eek: - things like thread hi-jacking are not allowed:eek:

 

we might lose them:eek:
