WiFi at sea… a must have or a must not?
We live day by day surrounded by various pieces of technology that keep us in touch and connected with the outside world. So much so that WiFi or 3G/4G coverage is almost taken for granted and we find ourselves in a pickle without it. We are constantly connected whether that be to social networking sites, […]
Read MorePay Peanuts Get Monkeys
Its a saying I often use and one which I think speaks for itself. If you pay £10 for a dress would you expect it to look like it did when you bought it after its been through the wash several times? Probably not. That wouldn’t be true had you paid £100 for a similar […]
Read MoreCalling all ADULT ONLY Cruise seekers….
Have you seen the amazing new programme with Merella Cruises (previously Thomson cruises) for Winter 2018/19? Oh my word. There really are some corkers and the prices are phenomenal. They are so fantastic, Im a little miffed that they are adult only as I wouldn’t leave my darlings for 14 nights and as kids […]
Read MoreCredit Card Fee Ban and what that means to holiday makers wallets
Its been a hot top for holiday makers since they were first introduced many moons ago but from Saturday 13th January 2018 credit card fees are no longer allowed to be passed down to consumers. Fantastic you’re thinking right? That’s what I would think too did I not know the implications of such a ban. […]
Read MoreChristmas and I. Our love hate relationship.
I LOVE Christmas. I love the spirit of it, the kids excitement and the village in which I live all beautifully twinkling with decorations. There are a thousand and one things I associate with Christmas and they make me warm and gooey inside but if I am being totally honest…. I mostly love the food. […]

Every December as a company we are treated to a weekend gathering to get together with our colleagues, have a bit of fun and find out what is coming next for the company and how we performed this year. This eagerly anticipated gathering is what we call the Cruise.co.uk Christmas Conference. Usually this conference sees […]
Read MoreOne side of the city to another without getting wet for just 70p
Its always the same, you go out for the day without a brolly in toe-less shoes and what happens? The heavens open. In the UK quite often we’ll dash into the shops and try to wait it out or end up getting back home looking like a drowned rat. And really, the rain we get […]
Read MoreBreakfast with the People of the Forest
Breakfast with the people of the forest…it sounds conspicuous, but it is something I had the pleasure of experiencing recently whilst in Singapore. You may be familiar with the word Orangutan, but did you know it is a word derived from the Malay and Indonesian language? Orang means person and hutan means forest or jungle […]
Read MoreSingapore did not disappoint
So today I am back from my Singapore trip and wow what a city. On arrival the first thing that struck me (after how hot it was!) was just how clean everywhere is and how friendly the people are. Singapore is a very diverse city with tourism at its very heart. Astonishingly most of the […]
Read MoreTis but a name….right?
You may or may not have seen the recent news that Thomson (or should I say Tui as we should now be calling them) have gone one step further in their rebranding process and have renamed the cruise part of the company Marella. To be completely correct I should say that Thomson’s are no longer […]
