Well you have set me thinking! We have just come back off a cruise to
Greenland, Iceland and the Norwegian Fjords and are due to go on one soon
from Southampton to Singapore,

In every group you post in, Mike, you always have to mention your cruises.
I'm not sure what that's about unless it's to show off your perceived
wealth. In this group I'd like to see you talking about gardening and in
all the others an appropriate subject without injecting "I went on a
cruise" It's irrevelent. We don't care.

I didn't see his post but we're not long back from a cruise up to and beyond
Svalbard as well as Faroes, Norway etc.

When we got back I could hardly get into the greenhouse for all the
foliage - had to hack at the trailing lianas of tomatoes ... an automatic
waterer (hosepipe from butts to a weeping pipe in the gh) ensured lots of
growth.

Any advance on the Arctic Circle?

Not that I care either and certainly wouldn't want to go anywhere hot!

:-))))))))))))

The midnight sun was magnificent http://www.myalbum.com/Album=D484OWCY from
Aurora in June/July.

Don't want anywhere hot????

Booked Oriana to the Caribbean this morning for 2010 and going on Arcadia's
1st two legs of her Worldie in January. Med, Suez Arabian Sea to Singapore!

Which ship did you cruise on?

You mention the self watering, we have wonderful neighbours who look after
the house, mail, windows AND garden. We came home to quite a crop of
tomatoes which were way in advance of his so we were able to 'help him
out'!!

Not sure about the cruise bit though.................

You can go on gardening cruises, two friends did last year.

Our first proper holiday in 50 years and the destination, not the 'cruise'
was the attraction. So saying, we enjoyed every minute. It was far more
interesting than I expected (he didn't want to go at all but is now the
driving force behind going again, with the hindsight of experience) and we
LOVED being cherished!
