Andy1976 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Only thing I've found is that since the pound is pretty much dead, the cost of holidays has increased quite dramatically. Looked at DLP for a couple of days round Christmas this year, and compared to Christmas 2015, it's increased far, far more than what I would have expected.

Paralleled by an increasing domestic holiday economy. What's not to like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgtkate Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I can't think why it could possibly have been a bad decision! I'm trying to book a place in Scarborough for 2019. Gotta beat the rush right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little malc Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 If you like being stuck on a ship with elderly fat people all stuffing themselves with food and drink, and probably having to share your table place with the bore from hell, then by all means enjoy cruising!

We've been on quite a few cruises and enjoyed every one of 'em...!!! A lot of the ships are geared up for families these days, with every age, from teens to tots, catered for....!!! A lot of the oldies could outlast us when the dancing got going and we were too knackered to carry on!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
