OHHHHHHH news alert

My DH has just gone our for a bit and I'm just about to take the boys back to school for an hour for their school disco...that means in 20 mins I'm going to get about 45 mins all to myself to sit and use the computer without any interuptions

 

[MrsJobba1]

Summer: May to September
Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday: 20:00 to 00:00 h
Shows with music at: 21:30, 22:00, 22:30, 23:00 and 23:30h

How about we meet at the fountain for the 22:30 - this would be a show with music. It would also be dark then for the lights. Then those who want can meet up beforehand and have a meal @ the 4 cats. ( 8pm) This is just a suggestion. I would be happy to organise the meal.


We could meet at the towers around 22:15 ready for the show.
I am going away on holiday tomorrow and wont be back until Sunday3rd June ( Stop jumping up and down joann !)

I really dont know how Im going to cope without my computer -Im treating it as kind of therapy.

If this plan is acceptable and you want to meet up then, let me know - For those who want to eat @ the 4cats send me a PM telling how many is in your group. When I get everyones reply I will email them and see about getting a reservation.



Count for dinner
Me x2
MaryJo x3
MrsG x2
Sallie x2
Kyla x4
formercper x2?
(possibly Andrew x4 depending upon chn)

I will email the restaurant on Thurs 14th June so if anyone else wants to join us just PM before then

Isn't it funny that sooner or later you get to that stage in life where even the simple things things mean such a big deal

 

[MrsJobba1]

I guess for you that would mean 0930am Sunday on the ship, Promenade lounge (where ever that is).

ITS on Deck 3 between lumieres and parrot Cay

 

[islandmom3]

Thanks for this Mary Jo

[MrsJobba1]

I guess Laura has passed me again and I'm running out of juice.

ETA: I think she already stated is going for Helen's spot.

Thanks for the warning

Good for you! Daves just phoned to say that hes going to be late from work and that he'llbring in a chinese - so no cooking for me tonight

 

[islandmom3]

Ok time to own up...how many people are now trying to lose a bit of weight before we all go on the cruise ?

Let me be the first to say "I AM " however at this presise moment I'm tucking into a bag of maltesers

I think it would be a MUCH shorter list if you asked who is NOT trying to lose weight before the cruise ( excluding all the men, who think they look like Brad Pitt at all times). As I eat my chocolate covered macadamia nuts and wonder why the scale is not moving down????

I totally agree with you - I must get on that exercise bike tonight

 

[kyla]

Isn't today the start of the next med cruise? Anyone see a trip report thread started yet?

 

[Disneynutinlondon]

We dont think we look like Brad Pitt, but we try My wife and I have been on the South Beach diet and it has been quite successful. She has really slimmed down and I will be in my speedo by cruise time.

No not seen one - but then again we've been so busy on this thread

MaryJo this is great. I'm printing this out for sure.

Ok time to own up...how many people are now trying to lose a bit of weight before we all go on the cruise ?

Let me be the first to say "I AM " however at this presise moment I'm tucking into a bag of maltesers

Count me in - although I don't think I will lose much, but at least I am trying.

Hi Everyone! We have tried to "get up to speed" with all the posts etc but to no avail!!! We want to be included on the lanyards, nametags and anything else someone can give me a synopsis on....Sorry to be so behind. We just booked recently.
We are:
alexcturner

Lisa Turner
Dale Turner
Alex 11 (son)
and
Meredith 5

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. We are "discussion forum challenged...."

Welcome.

What do you do with your buddy list?

Well nothing really. I saw it, but hadn't done anything until someone mentioned checking to see who's light was on when it came to pirate runs. At first, I wasn't sure what they meant, but then it was explained to me. So I started poking around with the buddy list and learned that it tells you who is online and who isn't. So you can just add people to your buddy list to see if there are any lurkers out there. Not that it will totally help you much, but it's fun to check on.

This is awesome!! My daughter's dance company just did everyone's name on the back of a tee shirt and they fit all the names into a TOP HAT!! It was so cute...mayb we can fit this into an outline of Mickey??

Give me a bit - and I will work something out.

The design looks awesome. Can you use the second or third quotes on mine?

Yes - I will change yours. And I am going to add a few people too.

Arrgh...

Congrats.

My timing seems to be better of late. A pirate a day is my motto.

If that isn't a great tag, I don't know what is.

JUST WAIT UNTIL SCHOOL'S OUT...............

 

[Sandaneli]

Ok time to own up...how many people are now trying to lose a bit of weight before we all go on the cruise ?

I'm not but I have DH on a diet and he's doing great. THe problem is when do we get his Tux altered? It has to be done in time for the cruise but not too soon or it won't fit

Can anyone please tell me how to turn off the email notification I get everytime some posts in the boards after my post. My mailbox is getting too many hits !!!!!

Thank you for asking this question. I've been getting inundated with Emails. Now I just have to follow the instructions to get it straigtened out.

 

[MrsJobba1]

JUST WAIT UNTIL SCHOOL'S OUT...............

Is that a challenge?

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

GOOD EVENING.

SALLIE P THIS IS FOR YOU, YOU REPLIED WITHIN MY QUOTE SO I HAVE TO CUT AND PASTE IT:-


I said before, but early for me re kids, stop them having junk food, if later they will be irratable and not so good at dinner, they will hit plutos etc before and then not eat, I like Dinner/show, and found often the people at second sitting miss things like the start of Pirates night on the deck, at Acapluco in 2005 it really went wrong and they missed a lot of the Mexicain deck party, complaints went in.

And you have an open invatation to dine with us, ( ok thats making you stay on late!!!)

I think there is room on the first seating.... I just cant make the jump yet, but I HAVE TO MAKE UP MY MIND. YOu will most likely be stuck with me for dinner... again I say.. Imagine the recaps of our day

That word gets over exposed a lot, try to keep your focus on this thread!
No Flashing in the Trevi please, poor pope!

Jimmy says forget the pope.. poor andrew and his family

*****************************************************
I think if you ask to link your dinner to mine, you might stand a better chance of swapping to early dinner.

Thank you for asking this question. I've been getting inundated with Emails. Now I just have to follow the instructions to get it straigtened out.

The instructions that worked for me were as follows

1. Reply to a post
2. Once you've written what you want BEOFRE you hit the submit button scroll down the page and you'll a drop down box called Notification Type one of the options in that box is No email Notification. Just select that and then submit your post.
It seems to have worked permanently for me
