25th May Get on board with the latest health craze.


Have you got Monkeypox yet? Not sure well here's a handy dandy Grace Under Pressure guide to check if you might have. After all it will only it will only be a matter of time before the panic police declare it an epipandemic and Gal Godot gets together with her C list celebrity friends to inflict another God awful song on humanity. So let's work our way through the check list.

Are you paranoid about Covid, still wearing a mask even when on your own, sanitising your hands before entering every shop and trying to keep 2 meters away from everyone? You've probably got it

Have you every seen a monkey, either live or on TV or spent a monkey on something extravagent? You've probably got it!

Have you touched any bed sheets in the last two weeks? You've probably got it!

Have you let you 'Woo Hoo' go near a stranger's ' Nu Nu' recently? You've probably got it!

Do you read the Daily Mail? You've definitly got it!

Do you still support Boris Johnson. You deserve to get it!

Does the idea of staying off work for 21 days sound attractive? You've probably not got it but will pretend you have just so you can sunbath in the back garden for three weeks!

It was pleasant enough but nothing special, indeed we were back on the ship after just a couple of hours ashore and then managed to sleep away most of th...

7th May Naples

 I'm sure I've heard the phrase 'see Naples and die' suggesting that it is perhaps not the nicest location in the Mediterranean but if it's good enough for Diego Maradona fir a few years then it's good enough for me for 10 hours. Although the millions of tax free pounds he was paid might have eased his stay. By the time we got up, washed, dressed and up to The Kitchens, the rest of the ship were already there. Compared to the Marie Celeste of yesterday it was absolutely packed, presumably with people having breakfast before heading out on 8am excursions, our excursion was simply going to be the city of Naples itself as possible trips to Vesuvius, Pompei or the Amalfi coast would have been too much / tired.  So on a day when the weather initially seemed uncertain, we jumped aboard route A for the Hop on Hop off bus and headed out into the mayhem that is the Napoli traffic where it was every van, car and scooter for the selves. I think it's bes...
