    Hi, we have also thought it would be possible to put on something other than the cabaret style shows that seem to be standard on most ships. I am sure some passengers would like an option to see something less run of the mill. A lot of the companies on board seem very talented and have probably had stage school training so maybe they would welcome a chance to use their skills. Happy Christmas! Carol

    I also am a cruise nerd...

    I have a list of my essentials ~ even though most of them go into the case in the loft after having been cleaned when we get home including Snorkels, packamacs, travel meds, crib board & cards, etc.

    I have a list of clothes & matching shoes for myself

    list of clothes for The Kids & Hubby.

    I have a list of stuff that I buy from the pound shop before each hol: pencil crayons, colouring pads, notebooks.

    I also do very thorough home work on each port ~ including which other ships will be in port and the Pax each carries.

    But for really true geeks I have found
    a cruise clothes planner

    Cruise check lists for leaving home & Disembarking
    http://www.cruisegiftstore.co.uk/cruise_checklists.htm

    cruise ship post it's for your cabin door
    http://www.cruisegiftstore.co.uk/cruise_postits.htm

    cruise planner files
    http://www.cruisegiftstore.co.uk/cruise_storage_cases.htm


    or maybe we're not nerds/geeks but highly organised individuals who don't like to leave things to chance:p

    We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.

    We never make lists either, and in the last ten years we have only forgotten one thing -
    a holdall that we left in the boot of our car at Southampton, luckily it only contained our clothes we had travelled down in the day before and two bottles of wine we had wrapped in them for protection against breakage. Merry Cristmas to All ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At Heathrow I came across a very sobering sight, it was that of a case on the carousel from which a dirty brownish liquid ran accompanied by an awful stench of rum.
    I couldn't touch another drop for quite some while, well I was to drive home you see. .....Neil

    Since four cruises ago, when OH. discovered he had only one pair of underpants in our luggage and the pair he travelled down in, I have a pack of 5 new ones stashed in his case. (Just in case!) By the way why are mens underpants called a pair? Answers on a postcard please! Have a Happy BOXING DAY, keep the SHORTS to a minimum.x.
