Topic: The naming of ships

Viro-Noris is a bit unkind, how about the Jitter Bug, it could be themed on the 1920's perhaps !!

The Ocean Village becomes the Costa Del Sol...........

The Golden Princess could be the Super Trolley

Oh my goodness, a Latin scholar to boot. We didn't have to decline this one at school!

The new NCL ship Epic how about the Nosey Parker !!

The verb declines as follows:

I unfortunately catch the virus off mucky beggars on the ship
You are a mucky beggar and don't wash your hands
S/he has ruined my cruise
We demand compensation from the cruise line
They say it's not their fault, but here's $50 off your next cruise.

Ah, thanks for that Bosscat. Now I realise why this wasn't in our textbook. It's a modern verb.

QM2 is commonly referred to as "The Block of Flats" and that was started by Nick Girdler of Radio Solent fame.

But as a celebration of another remarkably good Friday for Northern Ireland/Ulster wouldn't it be great to have a cruise ship called "The Stormont Castle" or is that still a bridge too far? .....Neil

Perhaps the next RCI ship might be named 'Impossibly Large of the Seas'? Its sister ship might be 'Ludicrously Large of the Seas'.

That's not a bad name that, 'The Stormont Castle' sounds good, although I think better suited to a 1960's Pacific class steam train, but I do agree it's got a good ring to it.
