We are definitely packing a picnic (the cooler packs are chilling as I type!). If you're worried about a rough crossing, get Dramamine or Stugeron and take it before you board.

The ship itself looks great but was worried about the food as if it's a rough sailing we skip food in the evening and just go for the restaurant breakfast. It's our first trip to France in 9 years and we're all pretty excited - I think it will be a cabin picnic for us. Thanks for the heads up!!Bredahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05862703432629852433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536515184463236022.post-18040983306948031382012-09-19T21:03:11.566+01:002012-09-19T21:03:11.566+01:00We also went to France on the Oscar Wilde. We were...We also went to France on the Oscar Wilde. We were to have travelled with daughter and her boyfriend. Being unsure of their dates, I paid extra for the 'Flexibility Package'. Daughter and BF could not travel and I asked Irish Ferries what they could do for us. They told me that I could pay a 25% penalty (€250) if I cancelled under the package, I was left in a bind. We resolved to spend nothing more with them and I brought roast lemon and thyme chicken with a Pinot Grigio for our main and three Irish cheeses with a St. Emilion to finish. We brought our home made muesli, fruit and yoghurt. We did similar on the return leg with supermarket roast chicken, french cheeses and less wine. Total spend with Irish Ferries was on 4 cups of pretty awful tea. Awful customer service but we took great pleasure eating fine food and drinking fine wine just outside the awful restaurant. <br />Best,<br />ConorConor Bofinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13883850754885500245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536515184463236022.post-35008228469040618482012-09-03T17:33:23.315+01:002012-09-03T17:33:23.315+01:00I'd agree that the food is poor on the Oscar W...I'd agree that the food is poor on the Oscar Wilde. Coming from France to Ireland in particular we usually make sure we've got a nice range of goodies for a picnic in our cabin.<br /><br />I would say though that I've found the staff to be universally friendly on the boat. They are a credit to the company.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3536515184463236022.post-67894276841160163702012-09-01T22:55:00.466+01:002012-09-01T22:55:00.466+01:00So true!!
