    Helloooooooooooooooooooooooo potters

    Well im back from my holiday and I had a FABULOUS time :D:D:D ok the plane ride was extremely painful on the way there but I had already upgraded to extra legroom on the way home and that made it much better as I could shift around to releave the pain without annoying anyone :)
    Moral learnt? don't be a stingy mare and pay the extra £5 :rotfl:

    Holiday certainly worth the money paid as I suddenly discovered I had an appitite, I wondered where its been the last 2 years and it seems in majorca :D so I didnt stop eating for 4 days :eek: also being all inclusive I had some very strange looks when asked what I wanted to drink and I replied 'a glass of water please'. Took a while to explain I dont drink alchohol and anything with carbon in makes me ill as do alot of fruit juices. But they got used to me :rotfl:

    Well after all my frivolities I found 5p on the plane annnnnnnnnnd 1p in the terminal on the way home :j so a nice start to my repotting :D

    not sure I will be potting much in the next few weeks as it is uniform time and my DS has had the audacity to grow out of everything :eek:

    So glad you had a fab time hun, no more than you deserve, hope DH is feeling a good too after the break, Majorca is one of my favourite places, the first holiday destination I went on at the tender age of 20 many, many moons ago ;) Stayed in Palma and its still my favourite part.:D

    Good to have you back and well done on the plane/terminal kill;)

    Have a good day sweetie and catch you later. x

    thank you all :D This holiday must have given me a new roadkill lease of life, found another 1p when I parked the car up at the spar for some emergency flour for yorkshires :D:D:D

    Also popped £2 into hubbys tin which is now no longer the 'not smoking going on holiday tin' but has been renamed the much shorter '£1 coins here please' and a bit of change from my purse into my 'your not allowed to save more, you get the schrapnel' tin :rotfl:

    I have to agree Footie, I love Majorca, we used to go to Magalluf alot or palma nova, but I have to say Sa Coma was lovely, it wasnt to busy and our hotel seemed to be aimed at adults as dispite being the middle of August there was no more than a dozen kids there :)

    Had a bit of a shock when we got there though, didnt arrive till after 11pm so all food had finished, went across the road to a cafe, bought 2 ham toasties, a pint of beer and a bottle of water and was charged 16 euros :eek::eek: Needless to say we were very thankful we were all inclusive!
