Rummages around purse for £11.50

Whats MSC Mac?

Thats why I put up this thread Mac thought it would help to get views from people who have cruised.

Will probably go for a shorter two weeks cruise and try that first and see if we like it.

Will be passing the hat round soon lol.

xx

Think I'm in trouble Mac, I spent 50p of it on chocolate this afternoon, lol
But did you enjoy it?
My neighbours went on two cruises last year and love them, but I'm aware it's not as cheap as a week in Butlins.

We will be going somewhere this year and will try cruising, but the world cruise is something we will have to wait for till we retire.

At this rate, we will be retiring in 2065, lol, especially as I love chocolate...

Lots of them Sometimes Portside other times you had to land by Tender.Lovely firework display in Sydney to welcome Orianas first visit. docked just opposite the Opera House.Perhaps you should try a trip on a Canal Barge first to see if you like traveling on Water,Its a Long Way Round the World,Watch out for Pirates and I hope your a good swimmer,It might come in handy,pmsl.**M**.

Car Boot Sales mmm yes there's an idea, I might be able to afford the cruise in about 2050 lol, maybe I could sell the diamonds, but I think they're really cubic zirconas. Will have to give it some thought....

If we've paid for it, we'll give it a good try lol, did you have many stops Merlin...

Barbara, Went in the January Via the Panama Canal ( It some times goes the other way round) came back the End of March begining of April,And you don,t have to eat all of the food,its not compulsary.**M**.Ps. you,ll have to do a lot more Boot Sales and Re open the Cafe to earn more redies to pay for it.pmsl.

I don't know anyone who has been on a world cruise, but all that time at sea, mmmm, not sure now...I might meet up with Merlin though and that could be fun,.....

Did I go on a World Cruise ??

My Hubby worked for the Co-op not owned it lol

no we went for 2 weeks lol

Did'nt see a man with a pointy hat so dont think it was the same one as Merlin

Oh Merlin I can't go if the ship moves, it doesn't does it, I get seasick, lol,

Barbara, at least two.If first Class another one,plus you pay for all shore trips,plus tips to your stewards,Jen. If you went on the World Cruise,Did you get the Silver Napkin Rings they gave to all people who did the First one? By the way, Make sure the Bloody Stabilisers are working they were,nt whe I went on it,and it was not very nice going through The Bay, As in Throw up Time.**M**.

Wmsl Jen...was you on the same cruise as Merlin.....then

Hi Merlin I could'nt spell inaugural lol so put 2nd sailing

jenxx

We're alright Jen, Merlin has plenty or if not, he could magic some for us,

How many noughts Merlin, OMG will have to earn a few quid then..lol

Hang on Babs I'll see how much is in the
Grandchildren's moneybox :))

Barbara,World Cruise? Did it on the inaugural cruise of the Oriana,Not bad but it seemed to be like a Floating Bordello. :o))>.re the Cost Add a couple of noughts to your £11.50.plus a few more grand ( and thats for One) if you want to go First Class in a Stateroom Wait till you win the Lottery. Would I go again, I think not.But if you go Enjoy it. Best wishes, **M**.

I've got £11.50 already Jen and if I resist the urge to go over thre road to the shop for chocolate, I could have £12.50

I always take two sizes on normal holidays Jen lol, so three sizes phew....
we have been having a look and they are very expensive but we have a few years before we retire so, who knows, it may be all a pipe dream but if we start thinking of it now and I pass the hat round...lol....

Hi Barbara Try a shorter Cruise first 1 or 2 weeks
