"All my bags are packed and I'm ready to go .." Well, not really, but it makes a nice song lyric. We leave tomorrow - not, I hasten to add, on the ill-fated Empress of Britain pictured above - and we will not be back until the weekend of the 6th and 7th February. Internet access is neither easy nor cheap on the high seas so I will not attempt to post to the blog whilst I am away. However, whenever possible, I will try to check into and update my Facebook page, so if you are on Facebook and want to keep in touch, add me as a friend if you haven't already (there is a link to my Facebook page on the sidebar). I look forward to being in contact with everyone again on my return.
What's the destination?
ReplyDeletePoetikat : Poor Amy was delivered today to the kennels (we call it a "Country House Hotel" within her hearing.)
ReplyDeleteJeffScape : Acapulco - Nicaragua - Costa Rica - Panama Canal - Antigua - St Lucia - St Vincent - Barbados.
Alan - use the shipboard VSAT service with gay abandon. Chances are the revenue will accrue to my company. Bon voyage and don't fall for being sent down to the engine room for a bucket of steam - or a long weight.
ReplyDeleteChairman B : How about a password or two for free access. I bet you went in search of a good few buckets of steam when you were a young rating.
ReplyDeletehave a wonderful time!!
ReplyDeleteI've been on 4 cruises Alan, so I know you are in for a treat! Soak up the warmth and sun! Ahh! We'll miss you!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Alan, and let me know what you think of the Canal when you return. I grew up watching ships navigate that...
ReplyDeleteI prefer to be in complete denial where Facebook is concerned. Enjoy the iTouch as well while you are away. Maybe we'll have the sun and you'll have the rain? I'm sure you could do a few beer tastings if that were the case. Have a good trip.
ReplyDeleteHave a grand time in( oh drat! ) wasn't it somewhere in Mexico? Where-ever it is have fun and will tune in whilst I can sir. Bon voyage!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time Alan. Safe passage and happy holidays.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy yourself thoroughly!
ReplyDeleteHave a great trip! We will miss you, and will be thinking of you on your fun adventure.
ReplyDeleteBon voyage! What a collection of countries you have in your itinerary - fun, fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd I would love to be your friend on the old FB - will search you out...
...you're standing here outside my door?! Oh, I wish you were. We must meet someday. Godspeed, dear friend. Relax and enjoy. Take plenty of photos, since we will want to "hear" all about it on your return. xx
ReplyDeleteTo quote another song, 'Happy Holidays ...'
ReplyDeleteHope you both have a wonderful time, Alan! Safe journey, T
ReplyDeleteBon voyage!! Is it a cruise???
ReplyDeletePale Observer : 'deed it is. (and thanks for stopping by - hopefully I will get chance to return the visit when I get back)
ReplyDeleteHope you & your wife have a grand holiday! Will look for you on FB & look forward to your blogging return.
ReplyDeletealthough I'm feeling all jealous inside, I hope you have a wonderful cruise. See that hot chick with a glass of chardonnay in her hand? That's not me... but it could be!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Alan - are you on the Oceana? I have a friend on it!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful holiday!... or in this case.... WELCOME BACK! -J
