Re: J514 to Venice
I think you encouraged me to book this one Popeye, it was the OBC we could not resist. 2011 since we last went on Arcadia
so very interesting to see how she's looking.
Would be good to meet up on board Suekersh
CMG

LOL OBF, just been getting a few things together, total count for evening attire is 20 dresses, two skirts & a top,
think that will get me through the 20 nights dont you think ..... and of late I have become a "Campari Girl" with
soda (:-)

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMOUNT
CMG and Popeye will shortly be going on their hols. If there is anybody in the Preston/Clitheroe area who can spare a few hours to get CMG's luggage to the coach it would be much appreciated. If you have a low loader it would be ideal.
There you go CMG. Always happy to help out!!

Re: J514 to Venice
LOL OBF. I am a clever packer & many of my size 8 dresses can be rolled up so take up little room. Maybe a low loader would be a bit OTT. And I have reduced handbags & shoes numbers over the years so only taking 3 handbags & 7 pairs of shoes. Now as for Popeye well kitchen sink springs to mind so maybe a low loader is actually a good idea! Two weeks on Friday and counting. Hope you and Mrs OIBF are well.

Re: J514 to Venice
Ours is 17 nights on board and one pre cruise in hotel where are you going for the extra nights? Your packing sounds like mine except I can only dream of being size 8. Love the dressing up on bond and hubby just can't understand why I need bags and shoes to match as well.
Looking forward to meeting you a well as have always enjoyed your cruise reports.

Hi Sue
I've got all confused with the 20 night cruise we are doing on Adonia 9th May!!! But we are booked on J514 17 nights on Arcadia so will finally meet up in September and really glad you have enjoyed my cruise reports. I hope to do one for our Adonia cruise but it will after we get back as I use my phone just for emails whilst onboard and wont be posting on the forum until we get back.

Hope you manage to meet up with PTSM and CMG Sue. I can recommend it!!!They were the Clitheroe clog-dancing champions in days of yore so you'll probably hear them!!!
Seriously I hope you all have a wonderful time.

Re: J514 to Venice
I certainly won't have as many new clothes as PTSM with his new DJ, shirts, trousers, shoes....I'm an amateur....so I've just ordered
a couple more dresses (just in case) from Next
Not been on here much OBF seem to have been so busy recently, in fact I have no idea where time goes.
No packing for me until a few days before, I know what Ill be taking with me....PTSM for one LOL
Would be good to meet up Sue for a couple of drinks or two

Re: J514 to Venice
Hi cornmillgirl and Ptsm, so looking forward to meet up with fellow Lancastrians for a few drinks. Sorry to let the Northern side down but we are cruising with fellow cruise buddies from the South. We met them almost 10 years ago on Arcadia and have cruised at least once annually since then. We have an aft balcony and hubbie has a birthday on board although not sure the weather on 3 rd October will warrant a balcony party but hopefully at least a pre dinner drink. Our cabin number is B167.
Hopefully meet up on board. Are you travelling by coach again?

Don't worry Sue. Ecky thump, they talk to southerners and you'll be able to translate.Suekersh wrote:Hi cornmillgirl and Ptsm, so looking forward to meet up with fellow Lancastrians for a few drinks.

Wish we were going with you but have already been to Venice once this year and there's no way I could persuade SWMBO to go again.
