So will the P&O Forum come back......

[oldbluefox]

That's what I like to see - a true Yorkshireman. I expect Wina bought it anyway.

[Wina G]

You know him so well Foxy

I could almost feel sorry for CN, but then again, no I don't. They have been lauding it over there at the downfall of the P&O site - just goes to show, it can happen to anyone, even them

Do you believe the old 'It was a cyber attack excuse', esepcially a 'massive' one, or is it what they keep saying about the IT people responsible for P&O's site .. pure incompetence?

Err no I don't but even if it was a 'massive' cyber attack would you fess up about it given what's happened in the past?

[Orpheus]

This forum is better than the P&O one IMOP and it is also nice to see who is online

[Dancing Queen]

To whom it may concern ...

We have been drinking Crabbies alcoholic Ginger Beer since returning from the Oriana Christmas Market's Cruise .... watch out for the Sainsbugs / Tesco deals trhough.

hic

Have never tried Crabbies but have you tried this.

Fill a large glass with ice and place slices of lemon and lime on top

Pour a generous amount if Sailor Jerry's through the ice

Top up with Ginger Beer.

Absolutely "delish"

OK where's the edit key gone I've made a spelling mistake.

I see a very much depleted, and a very much 'start again' Crows Nest has reappeared in the last few hours. Looks like everything was lost again - or alternatively perhaps one of the TA's who originally 'contributed' or whatever wanted their site back!!! I guess we'll never know

Still there DQ, but it is only active for a short period of time after you have made the post

[Dancing Queen]

Thanks Ken, I knew there was a time span but I noticed the sp error straight away and no edit was showing, ahh well it was shortly after so probably just a glitch ( or more likely me )

[Manoverboard]

The ' Edit ' option is there for 15 mins and along with a X ( delete ) is adjacent to the ' Quote ' function top right hand side of your post.

ps ... what or who is a ' Sailor Jerry ' ?

[paultheeagle]

I'm doing this just to look for the 'edit button'......Ignore me.


Found it.......

It's a brand of rum Moby, the only place I have ever found it is in larger Sainsbury stores.

on the FB page admin have posted about a 'quiz Carol' session on her blog and are asking for questions...

SO so tempted to ask about the forum

Do it Meg!!

It's a bone fide question to ask.

Thanks, following a visit to Sainsbugs I just happen to have a bottle in the fridge along with 6 cans of fiery Jmaican Ginger Beer, what are the best mix ratios do you think ?

[Romig1]

I would take it easy with the Ginger Beer if I were you.....just a dash at best!

[Dancing Queen]

For me .... Tall glass with a treble rum then topped up with ginger beer but maybe start with a double and top up gradually until you get the right taste that you like - don't forget the lemon/lime because it is the citrus that gives it the taste ... Enjoy

I was going to say that R but we don't want him legless and not everyone is as hardy as we Yorkshire folk

Starting with a treble and working up sounds just fine ..... hic

I think we ought to despatch a deputation to P&O to persuade them to accept this as the official CC site

[Dark Knight]

Given the poor moderation of the P&O and the way it degenerated over the last few months

I would say it would be a travesty to hand this over to them to ruin

[qbman1]

We could always sell them David to go with it

[Dark Knight]

Sell

not even I could get money for a knackerd old Smurf and I have sold sand to Arabs, literally
