Me and the Mrs are hoping to go on one of the shorter voyages either next year or the year after.

Quite fancy the round Britain one taking in Scotland and Ireland.

An excellent picture, its massive, completley dwarfs PS Waverely. As my son said though, it almost looks like a container ship.
I'd still love to go on it though

Yes I was thinking container ship as well. Having worked on the QE2 for 7 years I think I'm biased towards the older style cruise ships.

Big and luxurious no doubt, but it has to be one of the ugliest cruise ships so far.

Can't beat the old liners for style and grace.

Totally agree, looks like a floating block of flats - the older style vessels are much nicer

Nice pic, shame about the ship though. I think that for beauty in ship external style you can't really beat the Titanic/Olympic/Britanic.
