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

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,.....

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.

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

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....

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**.

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...

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.

Whats MSC Mac?

***take me take me!!**

Rummages around purse for £11.50

Thanks for that Mac, hope your'e feeling a bit better this morning, now a Nile Cruise would be fantastic, I've got a great book my hubby bought me about all the treasures and places to see, so will look into that Mac .

We need to save a bit more Squirrel if we're to have a good time, will cut out the chocolate now...lol

Morning Barb, everyone ...

Have friends who have been on Cruises of various sorts and each one of them has had such a wonderful time.

xxx Shimms xxx

Morning Shimms

I am saving hard towards a cruise but only have £11.50 so have to think about ways of saving some more, may have to start up the car boot sales again but I haven't got any left .......

Oh Barb

What are you like lol?!

How you brighten my day, truly you do!!! :)))))))))))))))) roflol

You'll get there, tis good to have a dream. xxx

It is good to have a dream Shimms,
We've both worked hard all our lives and I think I would like us to have a reward for that when we retire, so will start saving like mad and one day when OH and I are sat on the balcony of our stateroom lookin out at the wide ocean, I'll raise my glass and say cheers to everyone on GR, we made it.

Right what can I sell? lol

xx

When you're both seated on the balcony of your Stateroom, being spoilt like royalty, looking out at the beautiful wide ocean, I shall raise my glass to you both too.

Off to do that dreaded h*ousework, back later. xxx

lol Shimms, see you later hun.

I went on several with 'Grey Funnel Lines' trouble is I had to wear a uniform ;-)

I must admit I think we will have to do a couple of short cruises before we would contemplate going on a long cruise, but we are quite sociable and do go out quite a lot so this wouldn't be a problem

I don't think I like the sound of being herded around the attractions though DET, will take that on board :))

What kind of uniform did you have to wear Col, you weren't the captain were you?? lol

Lol I wish 'Grey Funnel Lines' = Royal Navy
