Sorry I just missed the live. I was on Aurora last New year and had horrendous weather. The pilot station was closed at Southampton, so we turned into the bay and the pilot came from Ramsgate. It took a while to get him on. Ventura was sailing behind us, so the pilot boat had to go through it again to get the pilot on there.
Merry Christmas to you captain & all shipmates on here
Thanks shipmate, and a Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas to you captain take care ❤❤❤
Thanks shipmate, and a Happy New Year to you as well.

Gosh, that is interesting shipmate. Bad weather is a feature, of this time of year. Hope you had a good cruise?
@@SolentShips it was amazing thanks. I love Aurora.
Merry Christmas from a Sunny but chilly Virginia
Thanks shipmate, and have a Happy New Year in VA.
Brilliant video as always
I served on the previous arcadia in the 1970 as a pastry chef, one of meny chefs
Hi Sophie I had my 21st birthday and sailed to the UK April 1972 on the previous Arcadia she also was a beautiful shop🙃
That's a birthday to remember, shipmate.
I wonder if you are still good with Pastry shipmate? Or if you have had enough of it.
How old is Arcadia
She was built in 2004, so a big birthday coming up.
Thought she came into service April 2005?
I guess it's trick to put an exact age on her shipmate. Started building, launched or first cruise? 2004/2005.
Fond memories
I bet you have some fond memories, shipmate
Sorry I missed live broadcast was 3.00am (03.00) here🙃
No problem shipmate, that is very early in the morning.
I do the odd celebration cake from time to time
Can be partial to an odd bit of cake sometimes, shipmate.
