Whoo hoo thanks for the link Meg x

when OH gets home will get him to have a browse through they are the sort off things he had in mind

I got mine off eBay and am very pleased with them. One is a fine lawn material which is extremely comfortable to wear and very cool.

... One is a fine ' lawn ' material ...

Is it ' green ' by any chance

[jacksparrow]

I bought mine off the ship... ok its a mens one but you just leave it unbuttoned and tie it around your waist...

[oldbluefox]

Don't you find it reveals your coconuts!!

[jacksparrow]

Nah.... I just wear a tee shirt underneath....

[Ginaberlosconi]

For Tropical Night some people really make an effort, but a lot don't bother. So... wear what you feel comfortable in. Anything is acceptable.

Happy days - am sorted got a blue halter neck dress with palm trees on it from Bonprix and also the 60's style dress both of which have been delivered and fit really well and have been placed in the "stuff to pack pile" all 3 boys got some fantastic Hawaiian shirts from ebay which have also arrived and been placed in said pile. So apart from tshirts for junior - we have finished now with only 4 weeks and 5 days to go the excitement is really cranking up

Hi Babs you are getting organised - clothes piling up already - thank goodness no flying involved so no weight restrictions - that's why I love sailing from Southampton don't you! I've sent my two new long dresses for shortening - I'm off to visit my son in Luxembourg next Thursday and when I come back I'll begin the packing - we are on countdown now Babs yippee!!

Too right Jan, I can't believe how quickly it seems to be coming around now - EXCITING

Yesterday we sorted out junior's clothes just to check what he had and actually he is ok so no need to get the additional t shirts. Cases are already out of the loft and list completed.

We were looking at the excursions again last night and deciding on our DIY itineraries. Was very happy to find out that the average temperature for Lisbon in April is 20deg - oh bliss

We have picked up from The Works a brilliant guide book on Barcelona - only £2.99 it's Baedeker Barcelona, loads of info and a brilliant street and metro map.

[Jan Rosser]

Oh David don't be a spoilsport!! Rain on our holiday - the cheek of it - not allowed.

Every time we have been to Lisbon it has been wet

[Jan Rosser]

David the sun shines on the righteous! Funnily enough I've been to Lisbon a few times and never had rain - whatever its like I'm sure we'll enjoy it.

[Dancing Queen]

We were there at Xmas and it was really pleasant, in fact we were sat outside a bar having a drink and I don't remember being cold, your weather will be wonderful
