Stephen I think you've asked us that before, I think we are different kinds of menaces.
Princess, this years cruise is with thomson sailing from newcastle. We are not allowed to go on P&O until Alice is over 6 months old which takes us in to the start of Williams first term at school. We didn't want him to take him out of school. Thomson basically they let you on no matter the age. We did a thomson cruise to the fjords last year and despite some small disappointments we had lovely holiday. This cruise goes to geiranger, tromso, honningsvag, Ny Alesund, longyearbyen, leknes, bronnosund, alesund and flam. I think alesund is as far north as we've been before so it should be an interesting cruise for us.
Andrea s. My wife is a tax accountant and has spreadsheets for every part of our lives. She is very organised and just gives tasks to me to complete and then report back. It works well as we also look after her disabled mum and my disabled dad which sometimes makes life complicated. We've also had a lot of sitting around time recently as when Alice was a week old William came home from nursery with chicken pox. So far mummy's immune system is keeping Alice pox free, we've got about a week left before we can rule Alice has escaped this time, just touched some wood.
I'm assuming that I've not missed much and cruise ships are still full of bad mannered children hating hand sanitising dodging passengers or inappropriately smoking loud mouth chavs who have turned cruising into butlins at sea with there badly behaved children setting fire to christmas trees.

I don't think I've missed anyone out have I? I do plan to have a quick gloss over recent posting for a bit of fun, I can remember a few golden threads on the old P&O forum.
Must go, taking the menaces for a surprise Chinese meal today for Mother's Day as the chicken pox took us by surprise a little and we ended up just staying at home. Thanks for the warm welcome back. P.M.
