Yes. Odd. From what’s gone on already there seems to be a problem in discerning the old from the new. 
 

Probably safe to conclude little substantial has changed on the surface.

There is not much to post. All I have spotted so far is new carpets in the corridors. There is no new exit to deck 8 . Couldn’t see any difference to the corridors on deck 8 except new carpets. Hopefully will be able to see if any new outside furniture tomorrow

Some of us were hoping for USB ports, and more accessible outlets by the bed -- any chance these were added?

If there’s anything specific you’re interested in seeing let me know and I can try and take a picture today.

How about the Spa pool area ?

Spa area - including if the locker room showers drain [no need for locker room photos 😉 ]

Illuminations - have the seats been upgraded, replaced?

Queen's grill cocktail lounge (the most boring lounge on the ship),  stern grill's hot tub area, deck chairs, any change in the Chart Room?

Anything done to any of the cabins?

Thank you in advance!

General consensus seems to be Illuminations seats have, at the very least, been recovered. I’m back in there in an hour so will try and take pics.

 

Can’t help with the spa I’m afraid.

Can’t help with Grills I’m afraid, I’m in steerage. But will wander past the Chart Room later and take some pics.

 

No obvious changes in my cabin but I’m in one of the solos on Deck 3L which were in fairly good nick anyway. (No shower curtain! Hurrah!)

I can confirm most public venues on QM2 have been re carpeted - The Grills lounge has finally  had a 'complete soft furnishing' make over . New Carpets  and seating in the Commodore, New Carpets in G32 and also new carpets in the Queens Room. I understand all staterooms will have carpets refreshed over the next several months 

There are several photos on 'various fb cruise forums' - maybe bluemarble  or Solent Richard could oblige and post some of them here for our members.

Re Grills Lounge deck 7 :    gumshoe958  you are at complete liberty to look into the Grills Lounge throughout the day, no one will challenge you for taking photos of carpets or new soft furnishing etc.

I couldn’t see any that were obviously out of order.

Thank you for taking the time!

There are USB ports and a US & European outlet by the bed in my solo cabin on 3L, but I suspect they were there before.

Really kind of you, gumshoe, to take the time out of your trip to take and post these pictures. It’s much appreciated!!
