So the other week I took my hubby Adam to Portsmouth for a few days for his birthday on 26th June. He used to be in the Navy and hasn't been down to Portsmouth for a while so when I asked him what he wanted to do, this was his…

So Royal Caribbean's new ship Symphony of the Seas is almost here, have you booked to go on the biggest cruise ship at sea? I would love to see this ship and how it differs from Harmony of the Seas that I was lucky enough to see when she launched…
