I actually think it would be pretty cool to do a trip like this!

Does look cool, not sure the missus would be too keen

I imagine they'll be pretty basic, some of the ships have outdoor pools though!

That looks like a proper idea, just need 35 days off and £4k

They did something like that on one of them around the world type shows. Two of the presenters sailed from America to UK. Like 25 odd days or something.

Not sure I get the point?

I was expecting it to be about £100.

I thought this, get a bit more money out and you could be on a carribean cruise, without 'seawater' pools

Yeah I thought the same...

Probably cheaper to fly direct, so the only thing I can tell you get from this experience is inconvenience being stuck at sea for a month?

I think you are forgetting that those prices include food too. Not a bed way to see the world


I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I think it would be quite good to do. Wouldnt pay that amount and do it for that length of time though, it would get boring after a few days.
