[pip_y]

steady on IBS I mean on a boat!

Thinking of taking Mrs K to the Caribbean...should I trial a Med or Fjords week first or just go for it next winter.

Im sure many of you lads have been...what do you think?,,,No Thomson stuff...I thought P and O ...any advice.

Concerned about being organised and sitting with others when dining talking competitive ballacks about how many holidays they have been on.

Will it suit?

Sensible advice only please...anyone with an IQ less than 120 please resist.

Boring fart Kempo.. Med cruise...be adventurous and get on an Alaskan cruise with Norwegian cruise lines... Exceptional but be prepared to be disappointed if you like to dress for dinner.. The girls and myself always dress for dinner but some of the slobs(mostly American) don't understand this..

Alaska is

I meant to have the decency to change out of the clothes I had worn during the day into something more befitting entering a restaurant...not my jeans and t-shirt as was often seen...

kin ell pal ...even I'm not that pompous...

Why should it matter that someone is wearing jeans and a t-shirt? Why should the simple act of eating require a change of clothes? Why shouldn't people just wear whatever they are comfortable in?[/quote]

Are you for real?

So If i see some fat slob in a worn out t-shirt and manky jeans queuing for breakfast and suffice to say also at lunch as you would expect 3 to 4 hours later then the ship docks and we disembark for a few hours and dinner is served from 7pm onwards and this specimen walks into one the nicer restaurants on board the ship still wearing the same dire clothes I first saw him in at 8am ...you think that's okay?

I'm not rich or either a snob I'm worki

I'm not rich or either a snob I'm working class but you're telling me it's okay not to change for dinner when you've had the same manky clothes on all day then you must live underground or be an eco warrior like Spider off Corrie...

That's the beauty of cruising though, you can lie on the beach in more than one place (or in my case go & explore, as I get bored laid on the beach after about twelve seconds).


Fwiw i'm flying to LA & going from there to four different Hawaiian Islands and Mexico via cruise ship (all new places for me) in one 18 night holiday. Granted there's going to be eight sea days but there's plenty to do on-board on these days. It's not just laying on deck.
