  1. Hopefully for OP it is, however F1 is on a dedicated F1 sky channel which i believe is seperate from Sky Sports package.
  2. The 1869 New Jersey vs. Rutgers football game occurred between the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University) and Rutgers College. It was played on November 6, 1869. The rules governing play were based on the London Football Association's 1863 rules that disallowed carrying or throwing the ball. For spectators, therefore, the game more closely resembled soccer[1] than gridiron football.
  3. The bars open when you get onboard so as long as bags get to cabin before sunrise im happy
  4. To answer the question asked its up to you if you want to tip anything for Room service there is no right or wrong answer. Be it a couple of dollars for your room service order delivery however im sure there will be people who tip $5 per plate on trolley
  5. Yeah 100% agree i mean everyone knows it was Glasgow Celtic Soccer club that was founded in 1888 not Glasgow Celtic Football club as its known today! 1888!!!! Was american football invented back then? Mmmmm dont think it was! Christ the US was that young back then it was still in diapers lol
  6. This Would depend if they pay for premium sports channels which would allow them to broadcast it. In UK sky holds the rights for showing live F1 races all other channels can only show highlights later in the Evening. I would guess every other European country was the same because F1 is big business. As races are a Sunday and the fact that most will be over before Sail Away, you may be able to stream online while still in port.
  7. Personally i have never seen Cats so if i was to go i would stay until the end. I do think you actually answer the issue yourself when you say it drags on probably as youve seen it lots of times! How many other cruisers are in the same position? How many cruisers look at cruise planner see something they want to do then realise they have an hour to fill in so take in 1st part of a show like cats etc which means they leave half way through or others who like you have seen it that often it becomes repetitive. Should RC bin a show just because someone finds it boring as they have seen it numerous times or should they honour their contract and allow first time cruisers the opportunity to experience it and enjoy it the like most of those who now find it boring did the 1st time ?
  8. You cant blame Haiti for garbage that is thrown into the sea 1000s of miles away and gets washed up on its beaches? And every time a wave washes in then so will some rubbish, thats just how it is... The Problem is the people in US! Europe! In fact everywhere who dont know how to use a bin and think its ok to leave garbage lying about or throw it in the sea!
  9. You'll be ok if its out of Southampton 99% chance of Rain !
  10. Nope! Not now! I turned down a job in Nov that would have Doubled my wage! Sounds great but it would have meant moving to England and while i have worked abroad previously i never had a granddaughter back then and No amount of money would make me leave her So when on vacation thats all it is, a break away from home and as the days count down its not only 3 days left of vacation its more a case of its 4 days until i see my family and my granddaughter.
  11. Cant comment on best grub as im Scottish and we just deep fry everything! Pizza! Ice cream! Macoroni Pies! Even mars bars! So our palate is all messed up with the deep fried food, buckfast wine and years of smoking 20 woodbine a day..but life could be worse! Our ancestors could have jumped on a ship years back and headed west lol
  12. Yes i have! thats why i mentioned it in the post you actually quoted and replied on
  13. Oh the old ones are the best! Everyone knows the Grand Canyon came about because a Scotsman dropped a dime and he kept on digging until he found it. And that copper wire was invented be 2 Scotsmen fighting over a penny. Btw youre months late to the party!! I AM the 1st 1 to make fun of us scots being tighter than 2 coats of paint! Have made jokes about it since i got here with regards tips thats personal between me and steward so no need to feel sorry for them as its not your concern you just stick to worrying about your own things such as whether your lumberjack shirt is washed.
  14. Thanks managed to bag it for my next cruise .
  15. Each to their own! Its not going to change my vacation so if anyone wants to pay extra its their choice.
  16. This made me laugh so much i dropped a stitch ....
  17. Mini golf is good, rest are hard to do when wearing a kilt...
  18. I purchased OBC previously however when i purchased the slot play reward for my next cruise i was informed i had to call the US to get it applied. I emailed and got them to cancel purchase.
  19. Its hard to tell people what to do and expect them to obey when you are being investigated by the police for breaking the rules you set!!! So what do you do? You just get rid of all the rules.... Boris is cheered by UK citizens? Make that JEERED...even by his own political party. Full backing of the NHS? Try asking doctors and nurses who worked tirelessly throughout lockdown while Boris was having garden parties, birthday parties and even a leaving party for one of his staff the night BEFORE Prince Phillips funeral, thats the one where the Queen due to restrictions had to sit all alone yet her elected prime minister was having a knees up in his house less than 24hrs before. He doesnt have the backing of UK and removal of restrictions was because no one gives a F"c€ anymore to what he says!
  20. Imagine how many envelopes you could have got on your last day if you helped lol
  21. You could give Chris Wong a shout and see if he can contact any PH crew on Wots on your behalf. He's probably friends with some on socials or RC may have its own crew social like other cruiselines have
  22. I first mentioned this variant (Ba2) about a month ago after reading about its discovery in France (Marseille) by the way this is the OLD variant the newest one that has been discovered is Ba3. You are correct there is going to be a new strain every other month just as has been predicted by the experts for months who have said its here to stay! Do we learn how to live with it or do we lock ourselves away? Like wise do we start a new thread every time a new variant appears because its like groundhog day! Lets throw in a curve ball, if russia escalates its war with Ukraine will Baltic cruises with stops in St Petersburg be cancelled? Will there be a change of port? But more importantly Will the masks we wear need to protect us from covid and poisonous gases? Lol
