    Well after NZ and Japan, how about saying Aloha to Hawaii?
    We would have to partake of mai tai cocktails of course. It would be rude not to.

    I should like to make sure I had a seat at the Captain's table. Afterall it is only right, me having been invited to sup with the Prime Minister of a Caribbean island an' all.
    Oh, perhaps not. I only have one decent* dress and that's in the wash :rotfl:
    * for 'decent' read fits nicely and is pretty - designer chic for £4 and a little refashioning :D
    I have changed my work-life balance to a life-work balance. :grin:

  • When we've seen the hobbit place in New Zealand how would it be if we tripped on down to the Antarctic to visit the penguins? we could take shore leave there and build an ice hotel to stay in and have a holibobs, fun eh?

    This evening I have been painting - a suuny sea with 3 baby turtles going down the beach toward it. DH said, "oh, that looked really good from over there". Gee, thanks!

    I also made a small concession to healthy eating. I had some carrot ... ... in a slice of cake :rotfl:

    We went to a flower show today so tomorrow's painting may be floral, in bright, bright acrylics :j

    Why are there never enough hours in a sunny day?? Ooh, do you think that we will get more hours in a day if we sail West, Silva?
    I have changed my work-life balance to a life-work balance. :grin:
  • I had a bit of unpleasantness over on the prepping thread and took the picture down and my little 'mottos' from the bottom because I had intended to leave MSE altogether and then after a rather stern debate with myself overnight I decided not to be a victim of bullying but to stay with my friends and not let an unknown drive me away. I'll put him back (I say I'll put him back but I wouldn't know where to start so it will be He Who Knows) for you later on today!
