Gooooood Morning (Yet again)
dizzy, getting one, JUST one of my lot to talk to me, when I want to talk is like attempting to get Her Highness Maggie Thatcher or King Tony Blair to accept what she did/Is doing to our Country, I think it would be easier for me to get into the SAS in my present condition. (I hear that they are short on recruits)
Whenever anyone of the coven ring me, I always ask (When I get get a break in the leature - well what do you want, which is always followed by an Ohhhhhh Dad silence - then 'can you do........lend' (Give, in their talk) etc.....
So to get them to drive me the little way to the local doss house (hospital) (about 2 miles from here - I'd have more chance asking the Blairs to lend me their chopper. (nearist to a chopper)

Arrived back last night from great Melody cruise. It was half term for Italian schools - enough said! I have never been in the company of so many noisy Italians. I have to do the Church coffee shop so will write more later.
On the dining room wine menu, there is a half litre carafe of wine for 6 euros which I will recommend - even the wine dealer from South Africa drank it.
I have not had time to read all postings but I know there was a worry about Airitalia strikes. I noticed two flights were cancelled but otherwise OK. (I travelled BA.)

Welcome home Maureen, looking forward to hearing more about your trip!
Anyone still having problems with PM email notifications, please forward the emails to Van at the address in this post:
Just glad to read such a posative 'short' but welcome posting
Your posting is the style other still waiting like to read.
Even on the Balcony Cruises we have are off days, (burnt toast, cold tea, the pimms not at the right temp etc....) But over all WELL DONE

Does anyone know if the MSC have been cultered, or do they do the usual forgien rubbish cup of 'HOT' (not boiling) cup of water with the tea bag (always Liptons ) on the side and carry it 300 yds to you
Or does one get a tea pot with good tea, the answer depends on wether I bring my kettle/tea pot and a supply of tea bags.

I'm with you there phil I like my tea made properly, in a teapot. vivien
Just realised ... my original allocation for was 4th June Libya cruise. Shame R*** couldn't have messed up in our favour and sent me on that one too. I could have been sailing away by now
Best not to ask about packing! Still making packing list - soooooooo much to do! Fraught? Who me?
phil,have you got the plaster all autograghed??you seem to be still in trouble with it.we all aught to make a rota to visit your balcony and cheer you up drink your pimms[i am very fond of that]i like burnt toast i like every thing well done!!!!!!!!1
its great reading the reports i hope they give heart to the many who are still waiting to get their cruises.it all seems to be too quiet at the moment there does not seem to be any new ones signed up.carol.
No new cruises so what happened to the 'within two weeks' mentioned on Three Counties Radio?
I'm so excited, I can now start packing - hope its hot!
The Eur6 wine sounds a good deal, I might have to try that, I know I'm going to have a drink tonight to celebrate.
Hold in there all the other lucky 13thers - see you on board!
we want all of the gossip and lots of good photo's to look at (not too dirty though, we don't want to get the site closed down )
For all those on the 12th Sept cruise we have 13 weeks & 6 days before the takes off from heathrow
until we all go lets have a and plenty of
dizzy
The tea is a tea bag and hot water but make sure you ask for cold milk. Even if you ask for room service, you have a pot of water and a tea bag separately. You can even have decaffinated or Earl Grey tea bags. You can have your clothes ironed for euros a piece.

Great to hear tickets are arriving and some posters are really off on their cruises. It has gone quiet but just wait until those of us who have agreed to wait for a 2006 allocation start getting or not getting the promised phone calls in July and sparks will start to fly once again. Then we will really need the help and support of all of you who have been successful and obtained cruises in 2005. I think there are fewer new users because of all those allocated the Libya cruises who have given up I really wish they could find this forum. I wonder if there is anyone expecting their tickets for Libya on 12th June I do hope not.
Great news about Magsey,
Who will be our font of knowledge whilst we have this gap in our lives ? I ask Should she be allowed to leave us all like this without any contingency plan (like for instance haveing a Netsat link (after all she wil only need the Northern one to be linked into). I think it is most inconsiderate of her not to take all of these factors into consideration, or she should not have gone on a cruise until all her loyal subjects ahd been and gone,
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh the men in the white coats are hereeeeeeee :bow :bow

Bless you Phil for the kind words! Don't worry, Dizzy and Craig will be here to look after you, not to mention the coven! Hopefully when I get back I will have lots of inconsequential but useful information for those following on! It looks like MSC is very much getting the thumbs up so far and I am sure I will be adding to it! Packing etc beginning to take shape now, at last!
I agree. The half carafe of wine for 6 Euros sounds like a deal. I'm be having a few of them. Thanks for the heads up.
Thanks Magsy for redirecting me back to this site. I thought it had gone, I hope you have a super dooper time. I know they do not take switch in Italy from my previous booking when I was going to overnight in Genoa. So I have purchaserd travellers cheques in Euros. and am taking a bit of Englishglad all those who have already been , gone and returned had a good time just waiting for new docs now. hope they arrive soon
