    Dolly have you been on many cruises before? We have one booked for next year in the southern carribean.

    All these posts regarding surveys.. Maybe I should join a few myself and give them a shot.

    Payments were made this morning so still waiting on them to clear but that should be all updated by tomorrow.

    Also this month I am starting to keep a log of SBCC (Sainsburys Credit Card) spends, we use this for groceries but it has in the past ended up maxed because I am an eejit & keep just buying the odd wee thing here & there then before you know it the card has no more limit left :mad:

    That is not going to happen again, everrrrrrrrrrrr!

    Dolly well done on getting into the next bracket!

    We have done the eastern carribean and western carribean. I'm not sure of the ports of call on the next one.

    I've also done a part world cruise which set off from LA, and we visited Hawaii, Samoa, Tonga, Christchurch and few other new Zealand places, tasmania and then Sydney. I was only 16 when I did this with my grandad and I'd go off by myself venturing and exploring what was ahead of me. Looking back it was a pretty risky thing to do but it was so worth it. My grandad would just stay on the ship lol.
