P&O Community site is back!!!!

[qbman1]

Don't' worry, I read it as it was meant. Mind you, I am guessing your OH has a lot to put up with !!

[HK phooey]

The only thing that winds me up more than a drunk on a cruise is a table companion that is hard of hearing. Completely wrecks the ambience don'cha know

[qbman1]

What....?!

[HK phooey]

That does it Cubie, you're never dining with me on a cruise and I don't care if you've got an OBE.

[qbman1]

Aw, please - and can you wear that frock you had on in Australia ?!

[Romig1]

From what I can gather this site is not quite as liberal with moderation as the old P & O site. Whilst on here they encourage friendship,the clique gets away with less . Why ? Because the moderators are more aware.

P & O seemed afraid of the regulars and their mass reporting strategy.

Hmm.... questions posed and answered in the same sentence. I'm sure I've seen that before somewhere but can't quite put my finger on it.

If you have any questions that you are unable to answer yourself (such as cruising related, perhaps) I'm sure we will do our utmost to answer them for you.

We're here to help.

Phew ...thank goodness for that

You guess wrong my husband doesn't know he is born he is spoilt rotten, but then he returns the compliment so I guess we are both pretty lucky

have a nice day y'all

[Supersleuth999]

I am beginning to like this site.

It has no closed groups and it is managed and moderated by those who are aware and not kids.

Oh no, not that old chestnut. I can't help but notice there are lots of members who haven't asked a cruising related question either ......... just sayin'

Maybe so, but it's nice to have a "general chat" area which is free of the abusive trolls who frequent other forums (fora??).

[Mo2013]

Silver Shiney, I think we agree on something !

And we will endeavour to keep it that way

That''s good to hear Kendhni, but it's worth remembering that not everyone who doesn't have a cruising question has another agenda.

we have never thought that was the case (assuming i have interpretted the double negative correctly

[Stephen]

Had a quick look at the P&O site. Can't log on, won't accept new password, blah blah blah. Basically, still cr*p

[Onelife]

I agree with Stephen

[Dark Knight]

I agree with Onelife....but not Stephen
and I have a cruising question.......do they have brown sauce on board to go with me bacon and eggs

[Stephen]

I agree with DK but not Onelife


Brown sauce...........no no no no no o no YES

[qbman1]

They're very accommodating on board - you can have brown sauce with whatever your little heart desires. Very popular with trifle and chips for those poor folk from 'Ull, I'm led to believe

[Dark Knight]

Wow
this site is a mine of useful cruising type information, now a bit more complex this one
when on board do they provide towels and loo paper or do we have to bring our own?

[qbman1]

You are allowed to bathe once on a 7 night cruise and twice for longer trips. Towels are only provided on request if you get very wet. The loos are very temperamental on board and you are discouraged from using them at all times. If you have a balcony cabin, you can go over the side otherwise you have to queue to use the bucket provided - one per deck

[Dark Knight]

this cruising lark is well upmarket, beats benidorm into a cocked hat
now what about food on board, do we have to pay for extra beans, fried bread etc or is it all included and do we have to do the school dinner sittings or can we please ourselves? like we do at home, this fixed eating guff sounds like being in prison or at Butlins, nowt wrong wi' Butlins mind, had many a good do there
and I have heard stuff about blocks of flats at sea, does this mean there will be graffitti everywhere and some pikey chav selling dope in the lifts and stairwells and if they are , does anyone know if the little scrotes prices are duty free?
cheers for the elp, we are well up for this boat trip
