On holiday
« on: January 30, 2010, 17:07:31 »
Just to let you all know that I am now on holiday and won't be posting- so feel free to make as many pointless posts as you like without fear of a sarcastic response. You have WM coming back soon who will I am sure make up for it on my behalf.

Please keep the Marmite spirit alive and well (and out the hands of you know who) ;)

I'll be back- just as soon as you've gone  ;D

Between now and June sort of time- I will be travelling probably a few thousand miles by ship... I will send reports. I will try not to mention to warm climates, chilled lager, dodgy souvenirs and bikini clad babes. I shall just stick to reports about rusty hulks of ships (no I'm not going to Piraeous) (SP)

I'm not constantly going to be travelling- just a few trips... Firstly at least one round trip on the Pride of Bilbao, then I'm going to try the Polferries from Gdansk to Stockholm, then Viking Line to Helsinki, then back, down to Gdansk (have 10 days in Poland) then up the coast to catch the Danish overnighter, work my way across land- or possibly head for Copenhegan and catch the ferry up to Bergen... From there, I have no idea... I shall find out when I get there.

Also, I MIGHT head south at some point to Gibraltar and catch the AT ferries service (from Spain) to One of the African ports...

That should be a fair few NMs... I hate flying and quite frankly would rather walk than get on a bus with wings... If OB Laden doesn't get you, then Ryanscare charges will.... and if you escape those charges by flying with a proper airline, then the noisy kids and airport queues probably will (at least with MY blood pressure it is a real danger) :o

If anyone has any other recommendations on where to travel to, please do tell...

EDIT: Recommendations for P&O are not requested... I will make an exception for one route and one route only between now and September. Other than that, no hull,  no rotterdam, no dover, no calais (not even when in the same environment)... No PO Irish sea... Err.. do po operate anywhere else? If so, then not there either.  :(

Yes TransEuropa have the old Pride of Free Enterprise/Bruges/Picardy...

A lovely old ship... I was on the last crossing ever. But lets not get into another "why do PO get rid of all my favourite ships"   >:( Still, given the age and size at least there was a reason- it genuinely was progress I'm afraid (unlike certain other withdrawals of late) :-X

I've never been to Rotterdam- or Harwich for that matter... Now there's an idea- thanks Nathan.

Stuart do you not need to tell us who you are leaving incharge of your forum empire whilst you visit areas of Europe that your petty sure do not have internet access yet?  ???

What staff upgrades are going to take place? CEO, chairman, secretary etc in your prolonged absence?
Who will become the new administrative representative of the United Gamers Alliance Ship Sim Forum who will become the acting replacement as chairman?

 :doh:

All this to sort out before your holiday...
...anyway have a good one  :thumbs:

2 hours and 41 minutes to go.... ;D

Thanks for all the nice comments, chaps. You can be assured that I will have some nice photos to bore you with show you when I return.

Oh, Laganviking: Apparently SOME parts of Europe that I'm visiting not only have internet, but also electrickery too!...

But some places I am visiting may well have neither...  :o
