Sunday Times Where Was I? competition

(www.thetimes.co.uk/travel/destinations/competition/where-was-i-ftrnmb55n)


The prize:

Courtesy of MSC Cruises, the winner and guest can take their pick of any cruise on its 2026 programme, worth up to £1,500. MSC Cruises’ fleet is currently 23 ships strong, and visits more than 100 countries, offering elegance and innovation as well as impressive facilities and entertainment. Destinations include the Caribbean, the Norwegian fjords and Europe’s bustling and historic harbour cities. There are lots of sailings from Southampton too, so there’s no need to fly.

The newest ship is the vast MSC World America which sails in the Caribbean, while MSC World Asia will launch in December 2026 and cruise the Mediterranean.

The winner and guest can also supplement the £1,500 prize budget with their own funds if they’d like to take a more expensive cruise. Gratuities are included. Flights, transfers and any onboard expenses outside of the standard inclusions (such as drinks, spa treatments, excursions or speciality dining) are the responsibility of the winner. The prize is non-transferable and has no cash alternative. All bookings are subject to availability and standard MSC Cruises terms and conditions.

    I've found if you leave a space after the postcode it gives an invalid message "NE1 1XX " rather than "NE1 1XX"
