OK, Hawk Eyes, we admit it. You’ve caught us out. On Page 10 of our current ‘Cruise Collection 2011-2012 Second Edition’ brochure, we have the wrong date on the ‘Springtime on the Moselle’ river cruise. The brochure says 28 May 2011. It should say 28 April 2011. The full dates are 28 April 2011 to 5 May 2011. Sorry about that. The guilty party has been banished to spend the winter in Siberia. Fortunately the correct dates were printed on the 8-page dedicated ‘Springtime on the Moselle’ brochure we sent with our August/September 2010 Newsletter. This is available for download here. So much for the bad news. The good news is the cruise is virtually sold out!

Can it be a month since we last blogged? Yep, it has been that busy. Our long awaited charter of MPS Statendam sailing the Rhine and Moselle in the spring of 2011 is out there. We knew the price was astonishingly good value. The hard copy of the brochure has only just landed on the doormats and the phones haven’t stopped. If you’d like to join Cliff and Rose on a fairy tale trip through some of the loveliest scenery in the whole of Europe, don’t leave it too long. Right now we’re all heads down on producing our next brochure. This will be the 2011-2012 second edition, and should be with everyone on our mailing list by 1 September. Dates are crucial here because the prices on many of the cruises in the brochure will go up on 1 October 2010 when the early booking discounts and the on board credits are withdrawn. If you’re not on our mail list, we strongly advise you to join today to get all the latest and greatest news and offers as they happen. Got to go! Busy, busy, busy!

Our July 2010 newsletter is now available to download, please click here. It contains lots of news and some fantastic offers. There’s a truly exceptional ‘Christmas shopping spree special’ on Adventure of the Seas: seven nights, 21 November 2010, including two nights in Malaga, all from only £399pp! Unfortunately for the staff, Cliff will be away at that time. He’s accompanying our Christmas Markets exclusive river cruise charter on 22 November 2010. Otherwise I think a few of us would have booked up for Malaga! It really is an offer not to be missed. That reminds me, there’s still time to join Cliff and Rose on the Christmas Markets river cruise if you fancy. But you’ll need to hurry – we only have three cabins left! If you’re on our mailing list you’ll soon be getting our new ‘Cruises of a Lifetime’ brochure. It will arrive with the July newsletter. If you love long-haul destinations, this is the brochure for you. Happy reading!

Cliff, Kim and Rose look forward to seeing you at The Royal Welsh Agricultural Society Show on 19, 20, 21 & 22 July 2010!

Wow! We’ve just returned from the beautiful North following a successful show in Knutsford, The Cheshire County Show. The weather was superb; unfortunately we couldn’t just sit back and sunbathe and enjoy the 10 year anniversary celebratory drinks because we were far too busy meeting both new and old friends! ‘At last you’ve ventured up North,’ was something we heard more than once and aren’t we glad we did. It was lovely to meet many of our regular cruisers; Gordon & Barbara Cooper, Andrew & Della Baxter, Patrick & May Bearpark…to name a few! Unfortunately Cliff was indisposed and couldn’t be with us but he’ll be back for our next outing, The Royal Welsh Agricultural Society – 19, 20, 21 & 22 July 2010. The showground & RWAS offices are located in Llanelwedd, near Builth Wells. Enjoy a splendid day or two in the beautiful Welsh countryside where you will not be disappointed with this thoroughly entertaining show. There is too much to mention here but click on this link for more details about the show and directions.

It’s here and on top of us! We’ll be off at 4am on Thursday morning to The East of England Show – 18, 19, & 20 June 2010.
It’s the region’s leading countryside and lifestyle show. The East of England show is proudly exhibited near Peterborough, ideally situated beside the A1.
This show is a celebration of all things rural. The livestock classes and horses of all shapes and sizes feature strongle throughout the show including spectacular show jumping.
Come and reminisce while viewing the vintage agricultural machinery, steam and classic cars. Of course, there will be ample food and drink and goodies to buy and Cruise In staff to chat to!
We look forward to seeing you over the weekend.
