Did somebody say there is a way to call DCL from UK toll free?

 

[Tod&Copper]

Yes Lynne

From a UK phone it is 0800 028 3179

 

[granmaz]

Is it just that number or do you need the US code or anything?

 

[squitty]

Is it just that number or do you need the US code or anything?

it's just that number Marilyn, no code needed.

 

[babydiver]

Thats a UK number if it was US it would start 1800

Hope you sorted him out Claire ... I had similar words with DH yesterday as he sat there on some XBox game while yours truly is stressing about preparing for the cruise, sorting out all the paperwork, packing, making FE gifts, sorting out banking, last minute shopping etc etc etc etc

Well I thought I had but he is back on the office working again.

I made him sort out all the clothes he wants to take last weekend so I guess i'll just get on with the packing. I can't be too hard on him as he has been working his butt off trying to impress in his new job, he is doing really well with all the projects he has taken on so I suppose it's worth it in the long run.

If he was playing on the XBox (which he does a lot!) on the other hand I would have wrapped the power cable around his neck by now.

I'm downstairs in the office, just heard my 4 year old get out of bed and go in the bonus room and ask my husband "Daddy, when are we going on the cruise ship?"

Ah, you've taught him well.

Cove Cafe Scrapbook coffee & chat:

Hey ladies, now that we have the dates for all the DIS organised events, I propose we meet on the 19th at 10am for our scrapbook chat.

I am sure that this time won't suit everyone but I am hoping it will suit the majority. Please let me know if you are still able to attend, anyone else want to join us for an hour or so?


Attending so far:

Claire (Pinky166)
Mary (Tod&copper)
Pat (Pflamingo)
Lauren (Namsupak)
Linda, Caroline & Eilean (Lindababe)
Tabitha (Donaldcp98)
Hazel (Hazelandannie)
Karen (Poohluv2u)
Deb (Dgentrysim)
Sarah (TotallyAngelic)
Heather (HeatherLOVESMickey)
Noel (Birkner)

So far so go. Just hope I keep everything straight. Last year we completely forgot about the fairwell brunch till we saw everyone sitting together. LOL. So no insult if I forget please.

No what's funny is that I actually had to sit there and explain it to my poor DH.


I can't complain about DH. He has been so great with whatever I have asked him to do. Spending long hours at work to try and pay off this vacation before we go, working long hours on this magnet and then today with the packing and ironing, etc. I am treating us both to some well deserved massages this morning and then we are headed for some Canadian Cheddar Cheese soup in Epcot. Then its back home to crack the whip the rest of the day.

Good Morning happy cruisers!

Hopefully everyone's problems will resolve themselves by ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!

Thanks, Claire, for the date and time!

Happy Day, ALL!

Oh thank you. I have not had need to call before I think but it is good to know.

Noel: thank you for all of your hard work putting together the Navigator, the Madeira tours and the pins & lanyards. So sorry to hear that both lanyard companies have now messed up after all of your hard work

Pat: I recently got round to reading our Frommer's Barcelona day by day guide and came across information on 2 shops that I thought you and Denis may be interested in visiting:

"Sombrereria Obach - this old fashioned shop only sells hats, including classic Spanish berets (boinas). Located in the Barri Gotic area on cl del Calais, Metro: Jaume I. Accepts MC, V.

Heritage - a theatrical looking shop, stuffed with old costumes, jewelry and Spanish Shawls. Located in the Barri Gotic area on c/Banys Nous, 14 Metro: Jaume I. Accepts MC, V."

Well I just had my hair done ... thanks to work this was the closest appointment I could get which is a great pity as it looks lovely today but won't look so good when I do it. At least the roots are sorted

I am now going to go shopping, looking for a few final bits and bobs, and fingers crossed that I win a dress on Ebay this afternoon that is perfect for villains. Then that will be my dress collection complete and I WON'T be buying any more. I still don't know if I will fit them all in. Our masks arrived today so that is another thing sorted

Just got my magnets to print, a few FE bits to finish, airport car parking to book, food to buy for DS who is staying behind, pirate costumes to find and put together, documents to print off and organise, banks to call re. travelling overseas, currency to sort out, and the rest of the packing to finish .... not too much to do in 5 days then

What does everyone else still have to do, or are you all mega organised and sorted already !!

 

[Beauty & the Best]

Gosh, I hadn't really thought of charging anything! I mean, it's not exactly "salon service"... I won't have a nail table or anything, we'd just have to wing it depending on where people catch me.

Not to mention how Disney might have a large conniption of my taking business away from the spa...

I'm just offering something I do well to a community that has done so many fantastic things for me during the planning of this holiday. I've never felt comfortable with the spa prices onboard, yet I know that a broken nail or a smudged pedicure can affect how you feel about how you look. If I can brighten someone's day a bit, it's my pleasure.

But if people insist, how about I trade nails for the odd FAB here or there?

That is sweet of you Dawn. If I look you up over the cruise, it will be cocktails & nails!

Could have started packing this evening but have been sat catching up on here with my JD and coke. Have started anti biotics today for sinusitis but to be honest my drink is killing the pain alot more

Annemarie

I hope you feel better soon Annemarie! Be careful w/ taking antibiotics and drinking - I don't think you're supposed to do that.

Ok .. This is a true story and my son in law will never live it down.
My daughter was in optometry school when she got married. She would come home and tell her husband about her day at school. How she was doing eye exams, dilating eyes and all.... Anyway in her last year of school she became pregnant. They had a couple of small dogs and 1 of them was also pregnant. When my daughter was about 8 months along the dog went into labor..... after the dog had given birth to a couple puppies her husband got down on the floor and put the dogs face in his hands and was just looking at her eyes.... My daughter said... "Jeff, what are you doing?" Jeff said... " I am checking to see if she is dilated and going to have any more puppies"... My daughter enrolled them in a Lamaze class the next day!

That is hilarious Jill! Thanks for the giggle this morning

What does everyone else still have to do, or are you all mega organised and sorted already !!

Sounds like you are really getting everything together! I am doing laundry today, filling out my packing spreadsheet (helps me decide what outfits to bring) and doing some initial packing. Tomorrow the main focus is packing - nothing else planned.

Just sent you a PM, Michelle

 

[smootenloopers]

Can someone please confirm the correct stateroom numbers for colkath2005? The FE list I downloaded today has 5501 & 5505 but I had made a notation on my list they had changed to 6015 & 6323. Can anyone verify which is correct? (Don't know if colkath2005 has started their trip yet.)
