    Ola......warm and sunny here en Espana!!! Got a couple of pink bits today already!!!

    Just popped in to say hello, OH is reading a book on the balcony and I had the ´need´to find a computer!!OK, I´m sad , I know!!!

    Hotel is fab, on the 9th (of 9 floors) and 1 row back from the sea. Excellent view of the sea and beach.

    Just wandering out now to see if I can find an off licence nearby to get some beer and vodka for the fridge - have to keep it an MSE holiday, however tempting room service sounds!!!!!
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    It's actually only about 60p a week to have your bin emptied.

    Who knows where the rest of it goes!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

    Hi everyone!
    Cold here in the North West Midlands but no snow...
    Hi Keren! Hope you're enjoying your holiday and that the flight was ok?

    Sar, don't despair-you WILL find a job, I know it.

    Happy Birthday to Pingu!

    I hope it's not too cold down there Bunny - my lad is on holiday somewhere down near you I think :D
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
