If it's rough, I will just stay in the cabin, with head under pillows

and hopes no-one starts singing " we are sailing "

I havent been on a p&o ferry but a p&o cruise ship is wonderful.......SIGH

I went on a mini cruise/ferry to Gothenburg many years ago. The booze was very expensive (being a Swedish ship) but the buffet was divine.
I have looked at the website for your cruise - get a cabin class cabin - has a DOUBLE BED!!!!

I am really looking forward to it now!!

Only thing I am not so looking forward to is the driving down the Portsmouth!! I aint a very good traveler by car

But I suppose it's got to be done If I want to go and have a nice time...it'll be worth it.

One tip though - buy your snacky things like crisps etc before you get on the boat. Because you cant buy from anywhere else its expensive!!! Otherwise have a good time. Dont forget the duty free - when you sail out of the harbour at Portsmouth they open duty free.

Thanks!!

I think I will be ok. Ginger knows all that kind of stuff about duty free and stuff, he only got back from Belgium 2 weeks ago. I will let him deal with all that
