Flashback to the 1980’s
Being born in the early 70’s, as a teenager my era of music was the 1980’s. Although I do like more modern music, sadly I seem to be stuck in that decade as far as my favourite music memories go. This year so far I have been to see Rick Astley and Erasure in concert […]
Read MoreWhat’s New With Thomson?
Over the last couple of years Thomson or (as they will soon be re-branded), TUI have begun to take this cruising malarkey pretty seriously. Some of us may be old enough to remember back in the last century the Sapphire, Topaz and the Emerald ships being introduced in the 1990’s, but did you know that Thomson’s […]
Read MoreCalling All Wine Buffs? Do you know your Asti from your Pinot?
Like many of you out there I have been known to partake in the odd tipple or 2 when I’m on my holidays & I do love a good glass of wine. I don’t profess to be an expert, although I did attend a 5 day tasting experience on my very first cruise (you have […]

Earlier this year when I was lucky enough to be travelling on the maiden voyage of the Majestic Princess, the sales team on board told us that we were about to become privvy to some very exciting & top secret news that was about to be announced. The big news was that they had taken […]
Read MoreWhy Cruise Lines Don’t Really Want Single Travellers
Amongst my regular customers I have quite a few who travel solo. Some choose to do so as their ‘significant others’ have other things planned or can’t get time off work. Some have either split up from, or have lost their partner and have no choice but to travel on their own. Some go with friends, […]
Read MoreWorking From Home – What’s It Really Like?
I am sitting writing this blog at 10.35pm on a Monday evening. I should have finished work 2 hours ago. There’s nobody here to kick me out of work to lock up and (unfortunately) no cleaners here to tidy & clean my office when I do finally leave my desk. When I first started working […]
Read MoreMy First brush with a Celebrity
Last week I had the chance to sample my first cruise with Celebrity Cruise Line sailing on the Eclipse. Sadly it was only for 2 nights, but it gave me a taste of what to expect. Here is my honest opinion. It didn’t start off too well as the sailing was sold to everyone including […]
Read MoreKotor – Where Is It And What Can You Do There?
Montenegro is somewhere I have wanted to go to for a long time. Every photo I’ve seen of the place is stunning and everyone who I have ever met who’s been there has nothing, but good things to say about it. Because of this I have booked my annual ‘treat week’ away with my sister […]
Read MoreFood Fit For A Princess!
Here is my review of the food I’ve just experienced on the Majestic Princess. I was lucky enough to try most of the dining venues and here’s what I thought of them… World Fresh Marketplace (Buffet) I ate in here for breakfast and lunch. I have to say there was nothing out of the ordinary […]
Read MoreMy Regal Experience On Majestic Princess
On the 31st of March I was lucky enough to sample the first voyage of the Majestic Princess. This was my very first Princess cruise and whilst I was allowing for potential teething problems (such as I experienced on Harmony of the Seas’ maiden voyage last year), my expectations were pretty high. I had heard […]
