    I would also go inside if it was a choice of inside or outside. Nice and dark if you fancy a little afternoon nap, and you can always switch the TV onto the bridge camera to see where you are going.



    Oooo, I will be in Lisbon in a couple of weeks, tell me more please.

    I loved Lisbon with its Sanfransico look a like bridge ...its very easy to find the train station and travel via train to what you want to see ....bus trams and taxi can take you up to the top to admire the view
    I loved the little winding roads ...and every street seemed to have a church

    Quidco told me on livechat that they've pulled the £10 promo

    "We are honouring this for people that have activated and made a purchase before the offer was closed at 11:00 on the 09/10/2015

    We had to close the promotion due to high demand, unfortunately those that did not activate the bonus and make a purchase before the offer was closed will not be eligible"

    So it would seem that even if you activated it, if you haven't actually made a purchase by this morning you can whistle for the £10.

    What was the point in activating it then? They should have pulled it when X people activated, not when X people claimed it

    At least I have one qualifying transaction on one account so I'm potentially £10 better off than I otherwise would be. I would just have felt better if I got a backup transaction done

    It is very frustrating that QC and others cannot get their act together with promotions such as this - making clearer they are for a limited time/limited number of people rather than claim before 31st October or whatever. I appreciate there are always limits somewhere along the line, but we are all grown ups and if we know this will act accordingly (okay, Shopit messed up when they implemented their limits, but they seem to have learned their lesson!).

    Closed due to high demand? What did they think would happen? £12 transaction for £10 cashback ... even a novice web marketeer could probably have predicted that demand would be high ... now they have lots of unhappy members who are getting to their personal email at the weekend to catch up and find they have missed out (again!).

    Rant over.

    Question for cruisers. If we go on this cruise, are we less likely to get a noisy cabin if we book an outside one? It really is last minute and the only options open to us would be inside guarantee or outside guarantee, we can't choose the cabin.

    Still pondering, noise is one of the few things we are dubious about.

    As it is your first time I would go for an outside then you will get a bit of natural daylight. Also great for dolphin spotting. You don't know if your oh will feel penned in so the daylight is a good idea.
    You don't spend much time in the cabin.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)
