@Cruise Monkeys Breaking News 1st Live Stream 2morrow on Solent Ships departure of IONA at 18:00

[@Chris-hw9gu]

@cruisemonkeys Thanks for another great video. I've had the black Shiraz on the brittania it's lovely. Just so you know you can buy it in your local co-op for £8.50 sometimes it's even on offer for £7.50. I get it all the time now haha

[@CruiseMonkeys]

We’ll have to pay the co-op a visit! 👌🏻😉

[@TheShellie35]

I was watching this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/h524lKuandSqZs0 of the Queen Mary 2 and at 6:31 who did I see having afternoon tea, but our very own cruise monkeys lol

[@CruiseMonkeys]

@chelle wales - Yes, lots of people spot us in Visit With Us' QM2 videos :)

[@PL-mu1cp]

I do not understand why you guys do not have more subscribers and views, You guys are adorable together and show a lot of the ship. I'm American and now I'd like to try a P&O cruise on Iona.

[@Shello58]

A lot of people, sadly, suffer from a certain phobia....That's why.😥🌈

[@terrilongden275]

@@Shello58 Ben and David and have got over 100,000 followers and these two will get the same eventually it just takes time, There’s so many KZbinrs who are gay and have hundreds of thousands or millions of followers without it being an issue. I understand there may be the odd weirdo who can’t handle a gay couple for whatever stupid reason. Whoever they choose to love In life should not be a barrier to who watches their fantastic videos.

[@Shello58]

@@terrilongden275 Couldn't agree more! I found them after they "popped up" after I started watching Ben & David...

[@DarrenMansell]

Just realised I hadn't subscribed. Fixed!

[@kevinbanham2429]

Hopefully each new video will reach new people who will enjoy and hit the button.

[@superbia75es]

Ahahahahaha. 'All the bars are closed...'. Slight consternation in voices. 'What time is it?...Erm, 4 in the morning'. Hilarious. Epic.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Hahaha 🤪

[@markrobinson9801]

You guys are absolute legends, can’t believe they don’t have a 24 hour bar for you 😉😂🍻🍹🍷🥃⚓️

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Haha, it is probably a good think they don't haha :P

[@LindaLee-ft6wj]

Or at least a drink named for them.

[@ErrolJ]

It's the little touches like the close up magic that make a holiday special

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Definitely, Calvin was fab!

[@kevinbanham2429]

Another fabulous job with the vlog you two are just adorable together. P&O Iona looks great and beautiful and so far all the food has looked even better.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you so much! Iona was fab and the food was fab :)

[@johnjt9435]

Another great episode. Looking for a club at 4am. Haha. I can see you both had a brilliant night

[@kevinbanham2429]

You would think on such a big ship one bar would be 24/7

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Hahaha, that would be cool, but I don't think many manage to stay out that late ;)

[@johnhenfrey5936]

Brodie’s Sindhu and The Glasshouse, sum up P&O perfectly. Thanks for the vlog looking forward to the next one.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Sure does. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@rolandjong9126]

That was a fun sea day indeed! That spa looked to luxurious, used to be saunas were free and it was great to work out and go to sauna before dinner. It looked very quiet in there thanks for taking us in! I didn’t know Gavin liked gambling? He is now known as Gamblin’ Gavin 😂. Those tapas at the Glass House looked so delicious I think three would have been enough though haha!

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Its a nice spa area! Yes, some of the older P&O ships have a free sauna still, but you don't tend to find on the new ones. Set limit of £20 per cruise only :)

[@karenaitken642]

I shall miss you after the last one 😞 .. you brighten my Saturday, when I can sit down and watch .. I'll look forward to your next cruise 😀 x

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Don't worry, only 2 weeks until we're back on a ship so it will only be a few weeks break between videos :)

[@karenaitken642]

Which ship are you on .. I may be on with you?

[@sparx550]

Lads another great vlog, we really enjoy your videos, the ship looked great. All the best lads.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.

[@MarinaAndJoeGo]

Thanks for another brilliant videos guy, as ever we are loving your Iona series 🤩 Huge congratulations on the casino win as well! The spa looks loooovely 😍 The gym is great too, although it's a bit tucked away 😊 We haven't been to the 710 club, but it is a really cool concept 😊

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you, in all the cruises it was our first win! The spa was very nice! Think the gym here is better, it always puzzled us why gyms are placed in the premium location, far suits a bar like a crows nest, hahaha! The 710 is a really nice venue, really popular - just the music wasn't to our taste. Thanks for watching!

[@MarinaAndJoeGo]

@@CruiseMonkeys well hopefully it won't be your last win 🤩 Oh we agree - why have that lovely view from a treadmi when you could enjoy it from a relaxing chair with a drink in hand? 😁

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Fingers crossed! Haha, totally! 😂

[@jenniferpratt440]

Enjoy

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you :)

[@chrispnw2547]

Well Done!!!!! Gavin brought in the big bucks!!!!! If you keep up your winning streak you will be vlogging from the Iona premiere boutique suite with a dedicated man-servant/personal assistant.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

That's the plan ;) hahha

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

It looks as if it was amazing! Thank you for the video!

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you!

[@brigidconroy2111]

DARN IT, EVERYTIME I TRIED TO SNATCH A TASTE AT THE GLASS HOUSE, I MISSED THE PLATE. Fab vlog, you guys are a HOOT

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Hahaha! :) Glad you enjoyed :)

[@chrispnw2547]

@18:16 'We may have over-ordered'. Yah got to have friends To make that day last long. Bette Midler. This seemed like one of your better cruises. Continued well wishes.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Yeah, Hahaha! thank you :)

[@tinapeatey8385]

Another great vlog! OMG all that food but it helped soak up the wine 🍷🍷 Can't wait to see if you won at the bingo Xx

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you! Yeah, the food was much needed after all that wine! :)

[@sarawoods9838]

The food in the glass house looked gorgeous, definitely putting it on my list 😋 really enjoyed this one guys 😊💗

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Oh you must try the Glass House, put it on the top of the list! Thank you!

[@deborahkent7151]

Yayy Captain Camby….brilliant captain….he’s great and soo funny…does he still do his 6pm broadcast quips? Used to love those. Went on Oriana in 2000 and had a scale 8 storm….I loved it but lots of passengers were real seasick! Things were falling off the walls and furniture sliding everywhere..we were banned from the top decks as so dangerous…fun to me thou. did glasshouse once ..only for a steak meal…didn’t realise you can order small plates which will appeal to me…your choices look fab….also if on the drinks package you can get ‘ice cuvee’ sparkling wine which was also recommended to me..you two are a breath of fresh air…I used to be able to drink lots but not now unfortunately…body can’t take it..getting old 🤣 loving the vlogs x

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Yes, he still does his Thought of the Day :) We do enjoy rough seas to be honest, nice to be reminded you are at sea. Oh yes, do try the small plates, they are a great way to try a few different things or even as a lunch. Thank you!

[@Mister_H]

Great video guys and I loved the small meal selection you had in the Glass House, very impressed that you got through it all 🤣 Iona certainly ha plenty to do, but we have to agree with the choice of music in the 7/10 club, not our cup of tea either, but its obviously very popular 😀

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thanks so much! 😊 The Glass House was amazing, those little plates are always great. Haha, yeah, it is very popular, just not us :P

[@tinapeatey8385]

Got my drink ready! Xx 🍷🍷

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Yeesssss :D

[@tanyawhite2751]

See what happens after 1 night in the casino Gav 🤦‍♀️😂 I’m impressed you’re sounding/looking so sober Luke considering it’s 4am 😂 food looks immense boys, loving for vlogs x

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Haha, still keep to our £20 limit ;) We think we drank ourselves sober again! Food was fab, glad you enjoyed the vlogs!

[@carmelshepherd6739]

Wow you got a bargain cabin looks gorgeous 😍

[@CruiseMonkeys]

It was! Well chuffed!

[@abenicks]

OMG you won 18,000 dollar! LOL such fun! x

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Ohhh we wish hahahahaha! Imagine!?

[@jaynemorris7600]

I enjoyed 7/10 club especially the chocolate and cherry negroni it was very moreish x

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Such a popular place. Ohh, will have to try that next time ;)

[@danielprentice2244]

love to try glass house

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Its a must! :)

[@jenniferpratt440]

Godbless luke and gavin

[@CruiseMonkeys]

🥰

[@lisarussell3907]

Got off Britannia on Friday no food in glass house

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Awww no :( Heard they were short on staff and were not doing food, hopefully all back to normal soon.

[@KenGoesCruising]

I won £300 on Iona in September. It happens to all the best people Gavin!

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Yes yes yes! :)

[@LindaLee-ft6wj]

I see you got your winnings in pounds. I need to get some pounds when we get off the ship in Southampton before we get on the train for Wales. I think I will run some dollars through the slot machines and get my change in pounds. Hope this works?? I wonder if I can get a some krone for walking around in Norway?

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Yes P&O pay out in pounds as it's the currency. The ships will usually have foreign exchange onboard, usually at reception, not the best rates. Cards are widely accepted here and in Norway, we've visited there 3 times and never taken cash.

[@nicolashankaradasan5470]

Hi cruise monkeys looks like your having fun on Lona

[@CruiseMonkeys]

It was fantastic :)

[@Danno1983]

No Seahorses

[@chrisonYTtour]

This ship can’t keep up with you lol

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Haha! Thats P&O for you ;)

[@superbia75es]

Right then. Just back from a week on Iona. Generally, appalling. Lol. If I did a blog or blog or whatever, I'd be tearing it apart. I'd like to say more and I think my feedback is substantial, not a moan. Really, we did not like it. 6th cruise, maybe our last. Certainly the last on P&O. Ooooof.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Awwww, that is such a shame to hear! Don't give up cruising, things are starting to return to normal, just give it time and look at what other lines offer, you should be able to find something fabulous.

[@alexhenderson7600]

Had a bad experience in the spa on this ship. Ended up spending nearly £200 on Elemis creams and face wash and didn’t really want them. I don’t like the hard sell tactics of staff in the spa. My fault really. I shouldn’t have agreed to buy anything.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Awww no! Think we’ve all done that at some point. We not give a firm but polite no thank you, it’s taken some practise!
