@@TravellingLightLisa Nah you are doing us a great service because as two old age pensioners on a limited budget we rely on on vlogs like yours to help steer us towards a good value holiday that we can afford. thanks again.
@johnrodgers2018 Don't get spending too much! 😀 A dark suit is perfectly acceptable as well. However, if you want a tux, go for it! Thanks for watching 👍
Happy 25th Anniversary Guys! Another great video with fashion tips thrown in for an added bonus. The Ambassador experience looks really good to be honest. You are definitely selling this to us. Looking forward to the next vid !
Ive booked a Med cruise in 2026 for 31 days with them. As a solo you must book early to get a cabin or wait near the cruise for a bargain fare. Solos nearly pay what 2 pay sadly, seems unfair but Ambassador are better for solo travellers.
We're joining the Ambition next week. We've managed to get our formal wear from local charity shops too. My dress was £8 and my partner's suit was £25. Seems to be the going rate! Great videos by the way, really helpful and honest. Thank you.
@bevwiseman6914 Fabulous! Glad to hear you got your outfits from the charity shops. I bet you both look fantastic. Have a wonderful time on Ambition and thank you so much for watching and commenting. We appreciate your support 🙏
@liverpool_of_life Many thanks for watching. We never went on any CMV cruises, but Ambassador seems to be doing a reasonable job of replicating the ethos.
I have yet to go on a cruise. I like the idea of going on an Ambassador Cruise as they seem smaller and more relaxed than others. Maybe you will go on another Ambassador Cruise? I understand they have a new ship. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. Ambassador is a reasonable stepping stone as it is a no-fly option from the UK, and the ships are not too big. There are no bells and whistles, but we enjoyed the experience, and the staff were great. We are looking at another cruise with them this year. Whatever you choose, have a great time! Thanks for watching 👍
So agree with you on charity shops for cruise evening wear! ..........everyone wins! ............new outfits for me at a fraction of the cost.......wear a couple of times........back to the charity shop! First Ambassador cruise in a couple of weeks so thanks for all the info! Wishing you a very happy Silver Wedding Anniversary too!
Happy 40th Anniversary to you both! ❤️ Thanks Karen - I've had some lovely dresses from charity shops over the past few years. I love visiting different charity shops in new places we go to. I was in the charity shops in Plymouth & Guernsey too.
The shows in the PALLADIUM are really good and professional, (I think they do not allow filming, because they are repetative and the next cruisers would have seen it on youtube ?)
Thanks for the lovely feedback. It is much appreciated. You will have a great time on Ambition. We are releasing a new video each Friday, including a ship tour. Thanks for watching 👍
You both looked amazing for the formal night 👍. We went with Fred Olson last year, and it was great. Just booked for next year with Ambassador and on the ambition. Did yiu have a fridge in your room ?
@KPP365 Ah bless you! We think we scrubbed up OK 😀 There was no fridge in our room. A few companies have now started to take fridges out of the cabins, which is a shame. 😟 Thank you for watching.
Hey! I love formal nights on a cruise especially when folks have made an effort. I always chuckle when I use that word ‘effort’ as what effort is required in putting on a penguin suit or a long dress?
I took Julie on Cunard for two weeks on our 50th anniversarry, When we got back on my 70th Birthday, My Birthday present was a Brown envelope DIRTY DEN STYLE for a Divorce 🙂
Happy 25th Anniversary. Yes, we watched Dennis Pennis, aka Paul Kaye, he's a really good actor, do you remember him in Pulling? What I'd like to know is where the ship was heading?
I enjoy dressing up on cruises because we never get to do it at home. I really think dress codes should be enforced. Anyway, very enjoyable video. What a lovely way to spend your anniversary. We had booked a cruise for our 50th anniversary but the pandemic hit so it was cancelled.
As you can see, we enjoy dressing up as well. It makes some nights feel special. I guess the cruise companies are an invidious position as there is a huge market out there of people for whom a collar and tie or cocktail dress are a turn-off. Ambassador and Cunard are still at the more traditional end of the spectrum. Thanks so much for the anniversary wishes. Sorry to hear your 50th anniversary cruise was cancelled. Thanks for watching
Another enjoyable video. The higher frame rate is definitely producing sharper quality film. Is there a speciality dining venue on board ? By the way, we always take our “cast off” clothing to the local charity shop. In future, we’ll just drop it off as we pass your house !😂
Thanks Nick. I think the higher frame rate has made things a bit smoother. Don't bother dropping your clothes off. I've seen what you wear. Feel free to drop Debs off though! 😂
Dress code is interesting...I like you take dresses with me & other half only suit trousers and white shirt and at a push a tie. Thats goos enough for any nights dining.
AT LAST !!!! A dartboard (no S Lisa "dartsboard". Plus Table Football. Wow. Gets the Disco Dave nod of approval. We want to see the entertainment so may I suggest some secret/discreet filming ?
Happy 25th anniversary to you both, we are cruising on discovery 2 in sept for our silver wedding it’s our first cruise❤ Dennis pennis thats a throwback I thought he was on the word or t4 something like that
Thanks for watching and for the anniversary wishes. We love the Discovery ships. Be careful though, cruising is addictive. You might just end up with a RUclips channel! Enjoy your anniversary cruise. We would love to hear how you get on. Happy travels 😀
if you are weighing up your options for a budget cruise this is definitely one the best channels out there.
@michaelthompson6885 thank you so much. It is really kind of you. We really appreciate your support.
@@TravellingLightLisa Nah you are doing us a great service because as two old age pensioners on a limited budget we rely on on vlogs like yours to help steer us towards a good value holiday that we can afford. thanks again.
Been on this ship in July loved it, spotless and lovely decor
Totally agree. We had a great cruise with Ambassador as well. They surpassed our expectations. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Thanks for sharing, booked a cruise on the Ambience a d wasn't sure what to bring to wear. Time to go tux shopping.
@johnrodgers2018 Don't get spending too much! 😀 A dark suit is perfectly acceptable as well. However, if you want a tux, go for it! Thanks for watching 👍
Another enjoyable vlog.
Enjoy the next one!
Cheers. Thanks for watching 👍
Always enjoy your blogs, such useful information, presented by two stylish people. Looking forward to the next one.
Thank you both so much for watching and commenting. Appreciate your support 🙏
Thank you 👍 Could you tell please what was the month of year?
@@luzira6506 Hi there. This was in April. Thank you for watching 😀👍
Great video very descriptive been on most cruise lines but wouldn’t hesitate trying these
Thanks for watching and for your kind comment. It's much appreciated. We do want to try the second ship at some point.
Happy 25th Anniversary Guys! Another great video with fashion tips thrown in for an added bonus. The Ambassador experience looks really good to be honest. You are definitely selling this to us. Looking forward to the next vid !
Thanks guys. As I always say, 25 years of happiness....and then we met! 😂. Looking forward to hearing about your Iona exploits.

it's like the "Magellan" operated by "Cruise & Maritime Voyages"
all amazing traditions came from....

And when you gift aid as well, even the government has to chip in! Thank you so much for watching and commenting. We really appreciate it. 👍
Happy 25th Anniversary, we were celebrating our 40th! Will be checking out the charity shops before our next cruise, love your dress Lisa :)
Happy 40th Anniversary to you both! ❤️ Thanks Karen - I've had some lovely dresses from charity shops over the past few years. I love visiting different charity shops in new places we go to. I was in the charity shops in Plymouth & Guernsey too.
Another excellent and informative video. Hope you both had a great wedding anniversary. 👍
Thank you very much. And a big thanks for watching 👍
After watching we can totally see how we didn’t bump into each other yet … Different venues at different times! Looks like you had a great day 😃
Glad we managed to catch up with you both eventually. Looking forward to seeing what you got up to.
The shows in the PALLADIUM are really good and professional, (I think they do not allow filming, because they are repetative and the next cruisers would have seen it on youtube ?)
We loved the shows on Ambition. The vocal harmonies were superb. Thanks for watching.
Really enjoying your vlogs looking to pick up a few tips,as me and my wife are going on ambition in July keep up the good work guys thanks.

@TravellingLightLisa We went with Fred Olson last year and had a tin fidge. It definitely came in useful for a coffee last thing at night.
@KPP365 Really useful for a cool drink in hot climates as well.
Hey! I love formal nights on a cruise especially when folks have made an effort. I always chuckle when I use that word ‘effort’ as what effort is required in putting on a penguin suit or a long dress?
We don't mind dressing up and making an 'effort' either. 😂 Thanks for watching and commenting it is much appreciated 👍
I took Julie on Cunard for two weeks on our 50th anniversarry, When we got back on my 70th Birthday, My Birthday present was a Brown envelope DIRTY DEN STYLE for a Divorce 🙂
Sorry if this video triggered any Eastenders style bad memories! Thanks for watching.
Happy 25th Anniversary. Yes, we watched Dennis Pennis, aka Paul Kaye, he's a really good actor, do you remember him in Pulling? What I'd like to know is where the ship was heading?
Thanks, Mary. We did watch Pulling. As to where we are heading - tune in next week! 😀👍
Really enjoyed my Ambition cruise in March. Agree the shows were really good. Back on the ship in November
Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes the shows were fabulous! Enjoy your next cruise with them.
Bostin` tip with regards expiring old codgers, I`ll be keeping an eye out now. Only trouble is i`m one myself! Happy 25th.
🤣 It comes to us all! Thanks for watching aer kid.
Dennis Pennis was in the Word or Tube.
I still chuckle at his Demi Moore 'interview.' 🤣 Thanks for watching 👍

I think I was on this cruise. I've been trying to spot myself!
Lol! 😂 It was the Spring break cruise. We have a few more videos to come out, so you may yet make an appearance! Thanks for watching 👍
Another enjoyable video. The higher frame rate is definitely producing sharper quality film. Is there a speciality dining venue on board ? By the way, we always take our “cast off” clothing to the local charity shop. In future, we’ll just drop it off as we pass your house !😂
Thanks Nick. I think the higher frame rate has made things a bit smoother. Don't bother dropping your clothes off. I've seen what you wear. Feel free to drop Debs off though! 😂
There is speciality dining. There was an Italian and an Indian. We didn't bother with either, but we heard good things.
Ooh no I'm glamorous on in August I'm dressing up 😊
Good for you! Hope you have a fabulous time. Thank you so much for watching. 😀👍
Dress code is interesting...I like you take dresses with me & other half only suit trousers and white shirt and at a push a tie. Thats goos enough for any nights dining.
We agree. Whatever is comfortable for you should be fine. Thanks for watching 👍
AT LAST !!!! A dartboard (no S Lisa "dartsboard". Plus Table Football. Wow. Gets the Disco Dave nod of approval. We want to see the entertainment so may I suggest some secret/discreet filming ?
Lol. Too late for discreet filming. We are back now! Thanks for watching 👍
Filming isn't banned.
I think the people wearing casual probavly went to the buffet that night
Yes you are probably right. Thanks for watching.
Happy 25th anniversary to you both, we are cruising on discovery 2 in sept for our silver wedding it’s our first cruise❤ Dennis pennis thats a throwback I thought he was on the word or t4 something like that
Thanks for watching and for the anniversary wishes. We love the Discovery ships. Be careful though, cruising is addictive. You might just end up with a RUclips channel! Enjoy your anniversary cruise. We would love to hear how you get on. Happy travels 😀
When I heard there was a Pendennis bar I immediately said to my husband there’s a Dennis Pennis bar ha ha
Lol! Great minds think alike 😂 Thank you so much for watching and commenting it is much appreciated 👍
I think not showing the show is other cruises copying it possibly, but seems petty & surely you want people booking the cruise.
Their loss, I guess. Thanks for watching and commenting it is much appreciated 👏
