About us
We are John and Jill, an ageing couple from Epsom who are still young(ish) at heart.
Our first cruise was a Seacation on Regal Princess in August 2021.
We put together our first Vlog for our cruise to Norway and Denmark in August/September 2022, and then intended to work backwards over the previous two cruises - two years later that’s still on the “to do” list. We were inspired to do so by watching the wonderful efforts of @cruisemonkeys and others. Our ongoing resolution is to try and take more video on our cruises and show more of the ships we sail in and show more of the food we eat.

Another amazing few days! My, getting caught in that rain, one would certainly be a tad bit damp! lol Always enjoy a sea day as it is my time to just relax. A great cruise indeed!
THis must have been the same voayge I took! thanks for the video.
Music is much too loud . Hard to hear your voice! ☹️
Thank you for the video.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You’re welcome 😊
So beautiful ❤.
EXCELLENT Video thank you.... Not sure what cruise you did, but we are sailing out of South Hampton in June going to Norway and Iceland.... If in fact you did that cruise, I am curious if Port or Starboard is better - It would appear Starboard is best for Norway and Port is best for Iceland Would love some input
We’ve done Norway (see our latest video), but not Iceland. It shouldn’t make a difference going down fjords, you see one side going down and the other coming out. Going anti-clockwise round Iceland, land would be on your port side, but it’s doubtful that you’d be close enough to see much detail. With Norway, the coast would be starboard going up to the fjords and port returning south. We found that the SeaWalk intruded on the view in the fjords, but our cabin M423 was just below and behind it, if we’d been in front of it I don’t think we’d have noticed it so much as there’s a natural tendency to look in the direction of travel.
We have M410 booked for a Norway fjords cruise, do you think the seawalk blocks out the view? Wondering if we should switch to M408 as yours didn't look as covered as M410.
@@schlogee we’ve recently done a fjords cruise in M423 and found that the sea walk significantly affected our view of the high sides of the fjords in a forward direction, so yes, I think you’d be better off in M408.
Hello again sorry for yet another question. My partner loves a Lager & Black. Do you know if you can get Blackcurrant cordial on board?
I’m afraid I don’t know. I can’t say I’ve ever seen it, but then again I haven’t been looking. If they have it anywhere I think the Seaview Narrows would be your best bet. Why not ask on one of the Facebook forums.
Excellent video. Easy to watch.
Glad you liked it!
Hello great video. I see that you walked through the Gym to get to the Wake View bar. Does this save you going up the stairs and then back down again?
The Wake View bar is actually on deck 16, so the quickest way to it from the pool area is through the buffet. On the video I came out of the gym on the deck above the bar and then walked down the staircase.
Pretty wonderful ship!! Plenty of areas to explore and take in all that the cruise has to offer!!
We really love it, this was our 4th trip on Sky
Remember to subscribe .
Hello, great video. The bacon in the MDR looks lovely and crispy. Could you tell me if you have to ask for it to be cooked like that as my partner will not eat pink undercooked bacon. Thank you
If you ask for American bacon it comes like that. Glad you enjoyed the video.
@@silvercruisers Thank you for your reply. First time cruisers here, so I hope you don’t mind the questions. Can you take drinks into the theatre and if so which is the closest bar to get them from
@@alanwilding1674 Glad to answer any questions. You can take drinks into the theatre. The theatre is accessible from decks 6 and 7. There are no close bars on deck 7, but on deck 6 Take Five and Good Spirits At Sea are both close, Good Spirits At Sea is a cocktail bar, whilst Take Five has cocktails and a wide range of spirits.
We got on Sky when you got off, we were amazed at the amount of sunbeds they had put out but of course they were catering for a ship load of Brits who had endured our rubbish summer this year. We found the outside areas on deck 7 quieter. Been on Sky a few times but this was the first time we have seen so many sunbeds put out and so close together. Think you still had to get up very early to secure one. Our cruise was a hot and sunny one.
Where on the same boat, seen my self at the beginning wearing blue top🤣
Hello both! Hope you are well! Loving the t-shirts! Noticed max eyeing up that margarita 😂 his Aunty and Uncle (my brother & his girlfriend) were on the same cruise as you🎉
Thank you, there’s a lot more video to come, so stay tuned and you may spot your brother and his girlfriend.
You are a charming couple!! Happy Anniversary to you!!
@@elizabethsnyder5074 Thank you
Maybe a night light ??
Hi we have booked next door M410 for canaries next march , did the seawalk block out alot of sun ? Im presuming sunrise and sunset will be fine and only blocks out sun middle of day , thanks for sharing video its a really nice state room x
The biggest factor that determines whether the balcony is in shade is the superstructure of the ship, if the sun is on the other side of the ship to you, then all balconies on your side of the ship will be in shade regardless of the time of day and the sea walk will make no difference. If the sun is on your side of the ship, in March the sun won’t be very high in the sky (although it’ll get higher in the sky the further south you go) and again the sea walk probably won’t make much difference.
Can I ask what time the theatre starts?
It can vary from cruise to cruise, but generally speaking there are two 45 minute performances an evening starting at 8pm and 10pm
We were really not looking forward to this port but found Soulac to be a lovely place - you had better weather than we did in on our cruise the week before. Great video 😀
Thank you
very informative, however at times it was very hard to hear you.
Audio was garbled or overpowered by ambient noise--so uninformative and unhelpful.
Early days. Good on them for giving it a go. They only way to good at something is to keep doing it.
Excellent camera work. Well done.
Thank you.
Happy anniversary guys 🍻
Thank you!!
This video has just been suggested to us. Loved it. It's always exciting to see your ship for the first time. One day we'll book a spa too. Those cocktail look amazing and dont talk to us about chillis in cocktails!!! Your food looked good. Thats cheese and biscuits plate looked good. The show looked good. We really enjoyed this guys. Keep it up 🍻
Thanks.
The Trawlermen were on P&O must be a Carnival staple...I believe there are more than one incarnation of them as we saw different versions on P&O
The double bass player and violinist are constant, the singer/guitarist changes
Pathetic
Very professional. You should give video lessons to the other vloggers.
EXCELLENT camera work. Congrats.
Excellent video, but....Please lose the music. It is hard to hear what you are mumbling in the background.
Tasty stuff! Worth a visit Finland!
Nice cruise ship video, enjoy the trip my friends.. Sooth Sailings
Thanks so much!
I recognise you both from the group cruise, we had such a great time too. We were in an Aurea cabin too. In fact I was standing close you you for the Cruise Monkeys group photo. You seemed to get more done In Cherbourg, it was such a great port or call. Many thanks for sharing your experience.
It was a please to have you on our group cruise! This video brings back some great memories and really glad you had a good time ❤
