    It's a port. I'd say it was a dead cert that there were many flavours of people with negotiable affection available.

Never had a problem from Portsmouth, drive in and park, cross carpark to terminal, check in and get on ship Last few times from Southampton its been sit in a traffic jam for an hour or so to get into the docks followed by multiple long queues before getting on board hot and bothered and fractious Still a glass of bubbly and a couple of martini's normally sorts the system out
    Did you bump into NLyUK while they were working?

    The flat idea is simply the thought of having somewhere nice to stay pre and post cruise rather than the 5 hour drive from ones mansion up North With interest rate busting inflation already here such an asset might be worthwhile but probably not
