  1. Sadly it is a topic where everyone can be pleased with having so many opinions. The people who are anti gay i'm sure the gay people will be able to spot them a mile off and will have no interest in talking to them, nobody has the right to decide who ANYBODY socialises with, if you enjoy there company whoever they are Enjoy, if you don't like someones 'Type'or whatever the correct word is ignore them, your not Forced to spend time in there company. People should be more tolerant, i have the occasional cigarette then you have the Anti Smoking Brigade as i call them who would ban it all together, there is something that happens on cruise ships i am fervently against on land but doesn't mean it should be Banned just be cause i say so. Live and let Live, and i would say to all these people who are Anti Gay the same as i say to people who do not like people of a different colour 'You wouldn't be bothered if you needed help especially if you or any of your family took ill'. Happy Cruising everyone Gay or Straight or any of those fancy names people use.
  2. Though not Gay myself i did become friends with a Gay guy on a cruise where he arranged a 'Friends of Dorothy' meeting but no one turned up though there was other Gay guys on the ship so a bit of pot luck.
  3. Correct the part where they talk about what to wear they state the Formal night will be on the first sea day which is the case on the G312.
  4. I'm on G312 on the 29th April and it says on the planner Restaurants excreta can be book from the 15th April so 2 weeks before.
  5. With all this talk of marking your case with straps or yellow ribbons which won't work if more than one person does the same i remember watching a customs program where a guy who had a Red Rope tied round his case and could not open it and said it wasn't his case. Customs didn't believe him but surprise surprise t was not his case and someone else had tied a Red Rope round there case and had lifted it. Not trying too worry you or anything. 😇
  6. Don't say that i'll be driving down the A34 for the first time in a few weeks from Scotland for the first time. Used to fly down to Southampton but since became Disabled a few tears ago easier for me to drive. 😘
  7. There is lot's of cheap luggage tags for sale online which you can get with your name printed on them, tie it to the handle then the chances of anybody lifting you case is very remote.
  8. You don't need to download the form just open with pdf then you can fill in then send back by email to Accessibility. Does become a bit of a nuisance if you have a disability like myself and have to fill the same form in everytime you book a cruise. In my case a Leg Amputated in 2019, i asked the Doc if it would grow back but he said very little chance. :-)
  9. Can't honestly see P&O or anybody else being able to book timed slots, can you imagine the trouble that would cause with people queuing for the next car then being told sorry we're going in front of you, there would be a riot especially at top if weather was bad.
  10. Are you allowed to say Olden hasn't much in it on here i made a comment on another P&O forum that it must have been built up since i was there in 2012 and as you said nothing in it and i got crucified for having the cheek for saying something different from the flock. Did answer the question where all the arrogant posters went after the official P&O Forum from years ago shut down. 🙂 P.S Another money saving tip for everyone, Sail to view Pulpit Rock from Stavanger, Get your Guide £56 P&O £95. Minor differences but not worth paying the extra for.
  11. True and the page you are sent to for the Bus/ Ticket is £85. Even found one company charging £104 for Bus/Ticket.
  12. Thanks for that i'm with Sky as well i'll look into that would be perfect as not one of these people who has there phone glued to there hand on holiday making the excuse 'in case there is a emergency at home'. 🙂
  13. Does anyone know any free wi-fi spots in Olden as looking to go on the Leon Skylift but weather can be different at top compared to ground level though there is online Webcam at top. Don't need to book trip with P&O and hope for the best as it is only 10mins away so could get local bus if weather going to be good but want to check Webcam first. Thank You.
  14. I'm starting to think that P&O are like what i learned years ago about the DWP, it depends who reads your form what kind of answer you get. Going on Britannia in June No Problem with form, going on Ventura in Oct No Problem with form but going on Iona in April send back with highlighted questions they want clarified. So checked my Britannia and Ventura forms exact same answers to questions but for some reason Iona isn't correct. 😔😔😔
  15. Thanks for that i have 2 Zoom Lenses and i have a bendy tripod with a sucker on the end of it so if i can find a flat surface i can video from there as i can turn the viewfinder round to see what i'm videoing then chop it to pieces later. P.S Hope you enjoyed Lisbon went there years ago got about 200 yds from terminal and the rain came down very hard. 😞
  16. I will be travelling on the Iona next month and was wondering if anyone can tell me if there is anywhere on any of the decks facing forward with out that six foot plastic getting in the way. The last time i visited the Fjords was on the Azura before they started to erect those plastic safety barriers and took a couple of days to find out there was a walkway that went all the way round if you walked between the windbreakers. Thanks.
  17. Looked at that after i came back the last time as the company that does the P&O trip is just the other side of bay but this year P&O is actually a few pounds cheaper and the company only does a 3pm sailing that day.
  18. That's more than just bad luck, are you sure nobody has a Voodoo Doll of you and was sticking pins in it.? 😀
  19. You forgot the silly little flags. 😄
  20. I was in Olden years ago in May and it rained when i was there also, the only reason i remember when i was getting off a Security Lady said to me i would be better with a jacket as it was spitting of rain. I replied doesn't bother me i'm from Scotland where it rains 364 days a year and snows the other one. 😁 Was funny to see everyone with there Nylon Waterproofs on with the hoods up and me with a t-shirt on when it was only spitting.
  21. It is here in the UK but guessing your not booking in UK.
  22. I've picked my excursion to Pulpit Rock but will wait till nearer the time to see what the weather is going to be like.
  23. I booked this cruise today and as the last time i visited Stavanger it was a Public Holiday and most places were shut so looked up Public Holidays for this year and May 1st is one in Norway. Guess what date Iona is visiting Stavanger? 😞 Either that or they've heard i'm returning. 😞😞😞
  24. We had snow then sunshine then rain yesterday then snow again this morning. So 'peed off ' with weather can't be bothered waiting till June for my next cruise so booked one at the end of April as well this morning. This weather is costing me a fortune. 😞
  25. The simple answer to that would be pay the deposit with your cash account then pay the balance with a debit card or credit card when getting home.
