Dubrovnik Preview

Not to inundate you all in one day - but this is my last post tonight - I promise. It's 11pm - I'm going to bed. Dancing with the Stars - the Results Show - just finished so now I am free from the TV. It is a good season. :)

So this is just a preview of Dubrovnik - our 2nd (and last) port in Croatia. These are some of the pictures Rachel took (she really started taking pictures in Venice - so I have a bunch from her at these last few ports). I'll upload my photos and commentary tomorrow.

The Best Quotes Uttered in a British Accent

"Although we adore men individually, we agree that as a group they're rather stupid." Mrs. Banks in Mary Poppins - Best sung.

"You know that stuff they're selling now at the local shop, 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter'. Well, you know, I can't believe it's not butter. Then yesterday ... I bought this other stuff, like a sort of home-brand you know... Well I can't believe the stuff that is not 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter' is not 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter', and I can't believe that both 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter' and the stuff I can't believe is not 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter' are both, in fact, not butter. And I believe they both might be butter, in a cunning disguise. And in fact there's a lot more butter around than we all thought there was. " Alice in The Vicar of Dibley - Best read aloud.

"Here's the man we like to call Mr. ... (titspervert)...uh (Titspevert!)... Fitzherbert. Because... that... is... his name." Bridget in BJD

"Would you like something to eat? Something to nibble? Apricots, soaked in honey? Quite why, no one knows, because it stops them tasting like apricots and makes them taste like honey... and if you wanted honey, you could just... buy honey. Instead of apricots. But nevertheless they're yours if you want them." William in Notting Hill

"She is tolerable, I suppose, but not handsome enough to tempt me. " Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice, but better when Elizabeth Bennet repeats it with derision a few scenes later.
