No. Only travelled from Portsmouth once, and that was on a minicruise to Bilbao, but that didn't go so good

HOW can you say THAT?

? The PO Bilbao is perfect! Traitor. NOTHING can go wrong on a Bilbao minicruise (or were you referring to the, ahem, AT lines Fortuny)

Never went on the Fortuny, sadly.

No, am sure the boat was fine, it was me that was the problem. By the time I got to the boat I managed to get the Flu! So A great mini cruise was wasted...

Without wishing to go OT, last time I was on POBI it was having a few technical issues and it wasn't really a good trip. I said I would try the AT service next time, but it was withdrawn and TBH I still have a loyalty to P&O

(Except at Dover, when I go to Calais in one environment, as it is very expensive and SeaFrance seems to be pipping them in the quality at the moment) (Oh, and I refuse to go on a British registered ship that sails under an EU flag!)

Sorry for the OT.

Ok, name of this ship, built in 1931..(she's been mentioned here before)..

-clue: seen here in her original role as an Australian coastal liner..

Wave Music · « **Reply #2406 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:05:53 »

You won't believe, but I searched everywhere by all possible key words!

saltydog · « **Reply #2407 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:08:17 »

You won't find her in "the usual places"..
(another clue in 20min)

Wave Music · « **Reply #2408 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:19:21 »

Perhaps a very special ship then.

saltydog · « **Reply #2409 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:26:10 »

She is now preserved as a casino and restaurant ship in France..

Wave Music · « **Reply #2410 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:26:49 »

Ok, take №2.

saltydog · « **Reply #2411 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:29:22 »

She is our favourite "sad ship"...

Wave Music · « **Reply #2412 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:32:46 »

OMG, SD! Is it that sad ship again?!

Moonta / Lydia

Yep, it's Lydia...formerly MV Moonta

Wave Music · « **Reply #2414 on:** August 20, 2009, 22:39:31 »

Ah, now I remember - it was jazzy01's favourite ship. What a sad guy!

What's the name of this pretty sad ship then?

Hey, you edited when I was quoting you!

Yes, Charlesville - over there (http://cartes-postales.delcampe.be/page/item/id,65245716,var,Compagnie-Maritime-Belge-S-A-Anvers-CHARLESVILLE,language,F.html)

saltydog · « **Reply #2419 on:** August 20, 2009, 23:40:42 »

Yes, allthough they were sisterships, I later noticed there were slight differences..

New one: name of the cruise ship in this picture, built in 1991..Later renamed before delivery..

Wave Music · « **Reply #2420 on:** August 20, 2009, 23:45:26 »
