Does anyone know why Ventura is missing Bermuda today and heading straight for Freeport on the 14th? I think this will mean they have had 11 sea days 😲

My neighbours dog used to go behind the TV to look for the ball when snooker was on!

Thank you, I'm going to have to try it now!

That sounds nice - never had a savoury one - is it simple to make? We had a quick lunch yesterday that I saw on Instagram, it was diced crumpets in a dish, cover with baked beans, chopped bacon and sprinkled with cheese then baked till hot - it was surprisingly yummy! Bit like a pasta bake.

Only my 4th cruise on my favourite ship but total nights on her so far is 175 😊

Breakfast muffins?

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that, only know about A198

Oh and another quick point, there are some window cabins that go ‘widthways’ at the back - certainly there are on deck 11 - these can be noisy with people moving tables and chairs and you also need to keep your curtains closed.

A298, the door from the corridor is between the bed and the bathroom - so bed on left bathroom on right - past the bathroom is the alcove with the sofa. The head of the bed is on the corridor wall with wardrobes/dressing table at the foot of the bed. We’ve had drinks in there for 8 people and it was fine. Hope that’s helpful and not making it more complicated!

In A298 it’s a more ‘square’ cabin, so the bedroom is like a normal Aurora inside cabin but the sofa is in an alcove. Hope that makes sense, I can picture it in my mind but it’s difficult to explain.

We've never had a problem with noise. We worried when we first had A298 about passing traffic to the outside decks but it's always been quiet for us! It's also very handy for the lift/stairs to the MDR.

How did you know? I only told galeforce9 😲 hahahaha

I don't have photos but I can recommend an inside cabin - its A298 on deck 11 - lovely large cabin for an inside and just a couple of steps away from the door to the tiered deck at the back of the ship. There are tables and chairs just outside the door so really easy to take your cuppa out there in the morning or have a quiet nightcap before you go to bed. Please keep it secret though - don't tell everyone☺️

We've booked the Baltics in May, obviously minus St. P now but just happy to be going back on Aurora and calling at ports we've never visited before!

Thank you, I'll try and find out.

Has anyone visited the Abba museum and can tell me how far it is from the cruise terminal? Many thanks

Just wondering if anyone could be tempted to take a 3 year cruise - step too far for me! World’s first three-year cruise announced – and it might cost less than renting on dry land (msn.com) Just been reading about it and it appears to include everything you might need - meals, alcohol at meals, laundry, internet etc etc,,,,,, Starting price of around £25,000/year doesn't sound too bad including living expenses. Probably cheaper than living at home and paying the gas bill. If you could rent out your property it might go a long way to covering the costs!

Although I adore Aurora, its the 'adult only' bit that's really important to us. Having seen parents letting kids play football in the atrium and teenage groups on the larger ships playing 'tag' up and down he staircase and in the lifts we prefer the more sedate cruises! I'm sure P&O could fill a mid size ship like Britannia with adults - I hope they can find a few places we haven't been to before though.

That's an idea - maybe make Britannia adult only if we lose Aurora or Arcadia

Isn't it just!

Did you just lift that from YouTube Presto2 or is it someone you know? I've never seen it before but's my nephews wife!!

And us 🙂

haha my husband says the same to me!

I'm having an expensive day - just booked Aurora for 16 nights in May - my first time back on my absolutely favourite ship since just before the pandemic
