    Cruising is coming home

    Given the US CDC attitude to the cruise companies and our vaccine success the cruise lines are bringing their ships to the UK for around Britain cruising and its a success. The cruises are selling out fast with many already fully booked and once the Americans find they can fly but not cruise they'll be flying here in droves to snap up any remaining cruises. It's boom time for the ports and if anyone wants a job I'm sure there's a staff shortage as getting the traditional crews out here may be problematic. Even Branson is bringing his ship home

      I suppose that means Hampstead Heath will ring to the sound of giggling and groaning from behind every bush at all hours!

      It's the dog walkers I sympathise with.

        Cool ... but are these inside or outside contracts? And I'm not taking less than £550 p/d

          The dogs are the cover story - in case the wife asks

            You need to be careful with your phraseology, unless its a Freudian slip, as 'to cover' is a term in dog breeding! But each to their own!

                Doing favours for sailors? If you're hoping for £550 a day, I think you should expect quite a lot of 'inside'...
