Travel Insurance
Yesterday was like any other Sunday, time to wind down a little bit and catch up on some of my favourite TV shows. That was until I got a phone call to say my godson had broken his arm. He had been playing in the local park when he fell and badly broke the bone…
Nautical Themed Everything

Cruising: The Not So Great Bits
So I think it is fair to say we have all established why we love cruising so much but, we also have to accept (as hard as it is) that there can also be bad points about cruising too. Yes I said it, the NEGATIVE side of cruising. Believe it or not there is one…
P&O Cruises Oriana
So I came across a great little video this morning about the refit of P&O Cruises Oriana and I had to share it with you all. My first cruise was on board Oriana and they always say the first ship you sail on will stick with you and she really has. I am still a…
