Topic: Queen heads off on a Princess

QUOTE:

I am so sorry. Liz Smith is indeed alive and RETIRED. Perhaps she could be persuaded to go on another, more friendly, cruise.

Perhaps now you can see why I am the ship's cat!

You probably got confused because her character died of old age in the Vicar of Dibley and also in The Royle Family!

Hi all
What about the people who had booked a cruise on this ship 12 months in advance.
Then were turfed off because HM + her dysfunctional family wanted a holiday.
JC

My guess is the ship is booked out to the Queen every year now and is not made available for that period. It is just a guess though, so if someone knows better let's hear it. As to 'her dysfunctional family', are they really so dysfunctional compared to the rest of us? Do you have a perfect family JC? Jane

Hi Jane
It was in the newspapers + on this forum.
Passengers who had booked were told their bookings were cancelled.
And yes Jane, in my eyes i do have a perfect family.
If i had a family like HM,they would have had a kick up the Backsides years ago.

Don't any socialists go cruising anymore? Is it just Daily Mail reading Tory Royalists from Tunbridge Wells, what a shame!

Hi Dave65
Yes they do.me for one.
Though few + far between on this forum.
But i do try to educate the Daily Mail reading Tories.
Join in + have fun,it does get their backs up !!:D

Sorry, I am one of the millions who don't read the Daily Mail, as I can think for myself, and at the risk of turning this thread even more political than it is I can also see for myself the mess your favourite party has made of running the country, it’s there for all to see, and speaks for itself
In my view the Mail readers don't need educating its the "whatever the cost" Labour supporters who need the educating.
The taking away of Britannia was absolute vindictiveness by a party that have been brought up to dislike their betters, Royalty, and their country.

And as I said last year when the same accusations were levelled at the Queen, I am sure that she does not realize that other Hebridean customers have been, as you put it "Turfed off" when she said she wanted a holiday on the Hebridean Princess

I am quite sure the limp wristed lackeys around her told her "ok leave it to us" it will be booked, while Hebridean lines must have been taking provisional bookings while having a very good idea that the palace would be booking a similar date to last year.

It must be difficult to organize a holiday for all your immediate family all who work, including those who work on behalf of our country.
The Queen has the wherewithal and the staff to be able to successfully complete this logistical exercise, and if I had the means and the opportunity to do the same, in order to have my family with me on holiday I most certainly would, and I am sure that 90% of the populous would also, and the first in line would be the lot who don't believe in Have and Have Not.

Hmmmmm and I can see why that might be the case. Still if you "Are sure" about the inner workings of the Queens mind then we can rest easy I suppose.

<P>I love the "stirrers" on this forum, they often state the most daft opinions. Like JC Liverpool, very anti royalty and every thing else.&nbsp;I bet he was one of the dockers still on picket duty years after the dockers had lost their cause of obstructing progress. Keep hold of the spoon lads.<IMG class=inlineimg alt=0 src="http://www.cruises.co.uk/images/smilies/smile.gif" border=0 smilieid="1"><IMG class=inlineimg alt=0 src="http://www.cruises.co.uk/images/smilies/smile.gif" border=0 smilieid="1"></P>

Yes actually I went around Norway throughout the Fjords on the Saga Ruby - I would highly recommend it!

Hiya Hackney, If you mean the cruise to North Cape in June this year, We were there too and loved it. Bit wet on deck though.
