P&O Cruises and fine wines have always gone hand in hand or, more fittingly, glass in hand! So what better partnership for The Glass House, Azura's wine bar and restaurant, than Olly Smith, whose passion for the great grape more than matches ours.
A haven of rich warm hues, delightfully comfy chairs and sensuous lighting, there'll be extensive menus
overflowing with palate teasing tipples and tasting notes compiled by Olly himself. He's even scouring the globe
for 32 wines to feature in the bar's unique Enomatic preservation system.
To whet your appetite for wine and for The Glass House, join Olly online throughout September as he tastes his
way through nine wonderful wines.
I have just stepped off the stunning Crown Princess where I have a most enjoyable tour of the entire ship and a wonderful lunch onboard. The photographs are now loaded on my website if you would like to take a virtual tour, and I will tell you all about it when am back at my desk.This evening I am sampling the new pre cruise stay package at the DeVere Grand Harbour, in Southampton – just a shame they haven’t provided a ship for me to sail on tomorrow. Oh well, I cant have everything!! I will keep you updated of my findings.

Luxury cruise line Regent Seven Seas Cruises is weighing up the possibility of operating its first ex-UK return voyage. The line already runs one-way departures from Southampton with passengers flying home at the end of each cruise. However, UK managing director Graham Sadler revealed that a round-trip sailing was now under consideration for 2011.
