No I have not been on a cruise, no need I would hate it as it ,as it provides nothing in life I enjoy and a great deal I dislike intensely .
As I posted I would pay the cost of a cruise to charity rather than go on one and consider the money well spent.

Re: 2017 cruise
The thing about this thread that irks a bit is that it seems difficult for some to accept that some of us really really don't want to go on a cruise. (I hate the idea of entertainment put on as well!) We all have our own ideas of what we like in terms of travel, so, while some people who haven't been on a cruise may consider it, others of us will never see the appeal. No need to try to persuade us otherwise!11-05-2016, 08:45 AM

Re: 2017 cruise
I refer you back to post 6 when asked if I would recommend them. hence my postings.No one asked for the anti cruise brigand to butt in or even trying to persuade them to try going on a cruise.
If read properly all I have done is talking about my cruise experience

I think the problem was started by some that don't like cruising, Ania. There should be no need to mock and name call those that do.
Be better (and quicker) to just to simply say "not for me," without calling them 'snobs' and 'up their own backsides' etc.
That's when a thread starts to deteriorate.

Isn't it a shame Mups that this happens. I appreciated all the comments from realspeed and realist. They took the time to give everyone cruise or anticruise an insight. There is definately no need for name calling.

Re: 2017 cruise
So you spoke to her before she sang and she gave you a wave, lost me there fellow, why did you find that so exciting.
And the surround noise, what pleasure is there in all that? Even more when you can chill out on a decent beach and listen to a decent version of the song.
