Help! I'm trying to make my mind up. Do I go on the Victoria to the canaries, or Elizabeth in the med?
The vic is 16 days and will be warmer than the med! The QE is 18 days, wont be as warm and is obviously more expensive. I aim to go grill class, both go from Southampton and I can't decide[confused. Any (sensible) ideas?

5june qM2 is setting sail down the Solent with the QE and the QV.
I'm on board the QM watch out for crutches with fairy lights and a regal wave!grin

I'll be in Italy on June 5th, but I'll send you a virtual wave from there!

Thanks, I'll regally gesture in the approximate direction!

I'll just lower the tone a wee bit as I'm off over The Mersey on the Ferry that day for a get together with pals at The Albert Dock,I will be travelling over using my pensioners pass so the travel is free grin
