Do taxis take credit cards? We're planning to take one from the airport to our hotel, from our hotel to Hard Rock Cafe, and to the port on sailing day. We'd like to limit he amount of US money we convert to AU dollars

Blessed are the cheese makers.:D

lol Bikus Dikus would like Pie and Thorse

Are you referring to Trammy McTramFace?

Alas,Sydney will never have Trams I think Nifty said that .We could have a new saying "Took of like a George St Tram"

Hello all,

 

Targeting Australian RCI cruisers here as I believe they change the price and exclusions for different regions and probably per ship.

 

Any one know if the $65 AUD being quoted right now is the regular price for the deluxe drink package or a discounted one?

 

Also

 

Any idea what the excluded (boo) Beers are? Never heard of this!

 

Thanks

If that is the price on your Cruise Planner it's a Sale Price and includes 18% grats. Normal price $87AUD, O/B $65USD

What about a name for the Light Rail that will thunder down George St. How does Thomas McTankFace stand up to Government thinking!

Just looked at the picture.Someones bit off his head,lol.

LOL He's not the Messiah,he's just a naughty lad called Brian!

Lol.

Watch out this could have series problems for lovers of Gregg's Sausage Rolls, a ban on them by the PC brigade,?? Looks like the thread is on again Mic give yourself a Pint of Guiness and a Gregg's Sausage Roll.

i usually sail on carnival because they have free ugraded showers bathrooms and a sauna on the spa deck..this is for all passengers to use and has nothing to do whatsoever with getting a spa pass which allows for use in the thermal suite and various steam rooms etc. it is a very nice perk for the general cruiser.

 

I am looking at videos of rci ships and i see something called a vitality spa. but it seems that all they mean is a place to get a massage or a facial etc.

 

Do the larger Rci ships have a complimentary shower, bathroom area for use by all guests? I just cant fathom not having a general locker room for guests with these amenities...thank you.

Yes they do and you don't need a pass, there complimentary.

We could have called the new ferry, Mr and Mrs GUT, what say ye? Bottle of $5.95 Eagle Hawk Australian Sparkling Wine at the launch, who need Moet? :halo: Or even Sir Benjo, or Anne Sherry, all legends in the cruise industry.

Excellent idea Catering to be done by Harry's Cafe de Wheels.! This Thread is out of control lol

My friend loves to snorkel and where to snorkel is obvious for Airlie Beach and Cairns. However my friend hates to miss an opportunity to snorkel whenever she is traveling. We will be going to the Darwin, Brisbane and Newcastle ports in Feb/March and I was wondering is there any snorkeling in these areas that are accessible on a shore excursion.

 

Thanks

 

Chris

She would be wise to give Darwin a miss as the Croc's love imported meat. Brisbane is a bit dodgy also no Croc's most of the time ,but the Noah's are a problem.

A thread here, off track, NEVER

Why not link it up to the Meat Pie Thread?

Hey what’s happened to the Aussie sense of humour

Unfortunately it got wiped out by the dreaded PC brigade Mr Gut,such a pity.

Locals and visitors will be able to travel on the latest ferry named Ferry McFerryface.

 

At first I thought it was a joke. But no, the name was voted on by Sydneysiders.

 

Now I smile every time I read it and can't wait to go on a ferry trip on the beautiful Sydney Harbour on Ferry McFerryface.

Come on MM spill the beans this is a windup.Even our Loony Victorian Premier would try a name like that !

She will need to drink from a long neck, run around in thongs and refers to herself as a Sheila before that will happen. I fear it may be too late for her now if she hasn't been neutralised by now.

Far to late Mic, I no it wouldn't work,besides I only drink stubbies! lol

I can assure you Uncle Les I know what I’m missing, I’ve known many of the wine making families of the region most of my life. My cousin owned a vineyard for years in partnership with one of the best known winemakers in the region.

My Barbies in the seventies were always Steak, Snags and Murray Tyrells Long Flat Red. Great to know the region still thrives

Sure can, never look a gift horse in the mouth.:')

 

BTW..beatleman if I may do you reside in UK or OZ ? I could never work it out.

Just South of Batehaven Uncle Les,a little place called Melbourne,

Be careful what you say "walls have ears"lol.

Needed a Plumber to unblock my sewage over the weekend, as normal none available; then you pop up on Monday! So 2 plumbers on a Monday enough to empty any Bank account. Brian where do your mob go at weekends? Yes I was up that creek without a paddle1

Zero commission fee for you Mic, as you are a Canberran.:halo: Keeping our town going.

 

:eek:

 

I will charge Mr Gut 20% PVP commission, all those rich Central Coast geezers. lol.

Can i pay in GFPies and Scrumpy?

Strongwilled those Essex Girls, they have to be, to stave off their reputation. :o

Yeah also mental, Uncle Les a bit like the UK site.They do like to perform don't they

Surely she has been nuetralised ( or naturalised) by now.;p

LOL Nuetralised, how do I do that?

can anyone give advice on trips to GBR. Is it best to take P and O excursion or is it possible to get an excursion when we get there. also interested in a helicopter trip

I take it you will be cruising to Cairns if so as a suggestion maybe look at a helicopter out of Airlie Beach;then a GBR Cat ex Cairns.You will have plenty of options out of Cairns for Dive or Sightseeing the GBR.

LOL, perhaps.;p

The correct answer is no,remember you 2 I have been wed to an Essex Lass since 1966;they never stop

Contact their Customer Service Team,

1300 385 625 - Australia

0800 442 095 - New Zealand

So that's Uncle Les's Phone No's Thanks Mic!

Royal ships do not change currency.

Yep,flew back yesterday.
