What time on the 14th are the tickets going to go on sale? (Can you tell that I'd quite like to go?) I haven't posted here in years but I've been following and looking forward to next September  :)

Hi Malcolm
It's very good to know that you're back in touch!
Remembering your magnificent accounts of That World Cruise hasn't been difficult!
Thank you, again and again!
Hoping that we'll meet up on September 22nd - and can compare notes in real-time!
All the best

Hi Rosie - I think there's going to be a rush for places at this convention. That's why I want to get in quickly to secure a couple of seats. If we're both lucky hopefully we'll meet in September

Will the conference tickets sell out as quickly as QE2's final voyage ?

Maybe not as quick, but we are hoping for a good initial response to the sale of tickets. 

I spoke to Gavin and John about the time for booking to open on the online website.

Booking opens from 9 am GMT on Saturday 14 January 2017. 

I need to set my alarm!  :)

Not very good for you June, but, I'll be sitting and waiting with me toast & coffee, I'm sure the system won't crash, but I bet the team will be a little stressed , my best wishes to them all,

It won't be too bad, Pete, because for my job, I have to get up between 5:00-6:00 AM depending on the day.   ;D

Sorry June, we did consider a time that would suit the rest of the world but after some deliberation we decided to go for the time we decided.

Hi Lynda -

The time which the committee decided on is fine and makes sense since the location of The QE2 Story and the conference are in the UK. 

No problem !
