We always book select as we don't want leftover cabins, so we use CPS and get to pick when we eat. We get some OBC as well. Folk will do what fits their budget.

Nearly a successful day at Gunwharf yesterday. Nothing DW fancied in the Michael Kors shop and the snobby sales Lady gave me a huff and a men don't understand......Can I help you sir ? Yes convince my wife it is all well overpriced.....result. We walked around the corner and there was the Radley shop....poo £99. I got a shirt. in the Crew shop. That'll do for our Anthem cruise....you've got lots of polo shirts....women don't understand....Lunch in Carluccios. 25% off with taste card. Stay at home today.🤣

We always use CPS. Never a problem dropping of car, or collecting keys. Can't really be bothered to save a few quid.

Great report Vamps .As you know we sail with P&O, probably about a third. Celebrity Royal and NCL for the rest. We are on Anthem in September for the second time. I hope they lift their game. We have booked our third Fjords cruise for next June on Britannia. Thanks for your review.

I remember your report from the first cruise you took your girls on..inside cabin, upgraded onboard..never look back. Your little girls will have these memories for life.

Good idea. A great City, but you can't look up.

We haven't been for a while either. I wonder if they did a pre Olympic clean up after the dogs.

The weather looks good next week. Shall we pop down to Gunwharf. ...OK dear, shall we take a picnic?. OK, we can have that before we look in the Michael korrs shop....got me again.😂

Rockies were indeed spectacular, but we saw more eagles in Alaska. Both will do.

In fairness to some of the companies, if they are in a quality assurance scheme with 3rd party accreditation, a requirement of the standard is continuous improvement. The cheap way of measuring that is a customer survey.

That was our retirement present to ourselves. Calgary to Vancouver staying at Fairmont hotels, Rocky mountaineer, Alaska Cruise. Majestic scenery. No silly tourist stuff for us...oh no.

They could hang up great big cotton sheets. The wind would catch in the sheets and pull the ships along . I doubt that would catch on.

I bet you thought your friendly seagull had come home.🤣

We stayed at Jasper park lodge. Brilliant, also on our way to Van conversion(stupid computer, I typed Vancouver) to join a Celebrity cruise. Look what turned up outside our room.

18-20 sounds like a heatwave at the moment.

Sometimes you come across ..." I'm off. I'll never post on here again "..2 pages later...guess what.🤣

Don't worry. IoW hasn't changed much in the last 30 or so years. Some parts need to as they are looking a bit ...neglected.

Please tell us when you post it. We are on Anthem in September.

Well Vamps, your Children are perfect...smiling, or asleep.🤣

You dog frightened him all the way down to Weymouth.

That was funny...I say, that was funny.🤣

We didn't have any problems. I am on Android and DW is apple. I think Mr Punch must be Microsoft as....oh no he wasn't. 🤣

Seems that a couple of decent days and we are all off to the beach. We have been lucky with the weather at Weymouth, so will stop off at Swanage on the way home tomorrow. Normally they have punch and Judy.....all together now....oh yes they do.🤣

We popped into Prezzo at Weymouth for lunch. I took a picture of the starter, but we just ate the main and pudding. Very yummy. Especially as DW used her tastecard and we got the meal half price.

Most years we have a couple of Spanish holidays. At the kids clubs they often have the " Music man " It's mildly amusing watching the German kids running around with outstretched arms to the dambusters bit. No offense meant,or taken.. Predictive thinks kids dance to hamburgers, but not Dambusters. 🤣
