Ugghh.. isn’t it good to come home ? Bills, bills, bills and straight back into the stress. Perhaps this will fix it ?

Plane food….
We landed yesterday and due to the time difference I woke up at 3AM and ended up downloading the holiday photos this morning. This is one I snapped on the flight home. We were only about an hour or so from landing and breakfast was served. It arrived in a fairly sizeable cardboard box with [...]
Bad manners make me violent :)
This morning we were sat around the pool once more soaking up the last bit of sun before boarding our flight home. Both of us had our eyes closed trying to get a nap when suddenly a voice bellowed out.. “Say, where’dya get your Coke Light?” Presuming it was someone talking to a friend in [...]
Illegal cycling – Part Two
You may remember the illegal cycling we did the other day. Here’s a pic I took as Emily peddled off in front of me. This morning it was a bit cloudy, so we decided to grab the bikes again and do some more sight-seeing. When we turned up again at the bike place there was [...]
Thousands of miles from home and the Brits ask for..
It’s all too easy to be critical of other nationalities when on holiday. I’ve already blogged about this earlier, and no doubt people will have their own opinions of German, French and other nationalities when on holiday in Spain or where-ever. Last night though I was ashamed to call myself British, and I’ll tell you [...]
Top Gear, Sunday – Just watch it, OK?!
I’ve got just a short blog post here. Top Gear is coming back this SUNDAY at 8pm. If you do miss it, the repeat is on Wednesday at 7pm. This is possibly THE best show of any kind in the planet, so tune in!

Something else I wanted to mention in my previous post was our stop at Starbucks. Emily is a coffee fanatic, and it doesn’t seem to matter where we are in the world – she’ll sniff out a coffee house from about 10 miles away. Back home her favourite place is Costa Coffee because (and I [...]
Too much geeky stuff is bad
I’ve got to make this a quick blog post. The reason is because my wife, and I still find it weird saying “wife” after saying “girlfriend” for so many years, is not into the techy stuff in any way. She quite rightly tells me to stop fiddling with this Orange SPV M3100 whilst we’re on [...]
Toilet phones?
I’ve been meaning to blog about this for a while. I’ve seen the same thing in various hotels and I’m stumped… Just why do they put a phone in the toilet? It’s not like it’s next to the shower – it’s always at a certain height next to the toilet. I’ll admit to using it [...]
We got massaged !
So today we went for our massage. The day started off badly, with me waking up to a large buzzing noise in my right ear. It was a mosquito.. they don’t normally bite me, but they seem to be having a feast at the moment. I shot up like a bolt and started to make [...]
