Hard stuff

Trying to concentrate when it's such a lovely day outside!

Mental!

Sunday, June 26, 2011

Hot day, Hot day

Unreal scenes, up to 30 and could be 32 tomorrow!!!

Sleeping issue

Still have them, it really sucks!

Weather to be good today!

Saturday, June 25, 2011

Long day house hunting...

Very annoying and frustrating it is too!

To the...

Hairdressers/Barbers early on a Saturday morning!

Wednesday, June 22, 2011

Homeward

No doubt to get villi led when I get in for being late!

Too old...

For going out these days during the week!
Soooooooo tired!

Team IHC

Good times

Enjoyed the mini IHC reunion last night, a little bit worse for wear this morning!

Stripper Funny

A stripper was handing out wee cards for publicity for her strip club, but due to the rain, her slutty outfit was somewhat overshadowed by her coat!
Ha!

Phew

Back at work and having to work very hard with lots to take on board!

Interesting though and I'm quite content too!

Sunday, June 19, 2011

Urrgh!

Weather is horrible! Back home...bleueghh!

Over

Last night been and done, probably the worst one too for food, entertainment and sunburn! 9.45am taxi to airport tomorrow! :(

Silly Neil

Pushed the boundaries a bit too far today and hence is sunburnt badly!

Other iPod

A little check to see if this works from my other iPhone too!?

Hot and sunny...lovely...and less windy too!

Last day!

Boo, and feeling a bit hungover and tired to boot today!

Late one

First late one of the summer, did the quiz and watched the snake show last night...good clean fun for the family!

Thursday, June 16, 2011

And windy it was too!

Sand is everywhere!

Wow!

Sounds very windy today!

Wednesday, June 15, 2011

Motown night

Good times!

So we were up here today

Made it...

Luckily we were the first stop afterwards so not too long!

Good day 'off'

That was a really nice day off seeing the Volcano 'Teida' in the middle of the island and then visiting the Zoo Loro Parque in the afternoon.

Thought it was very good all round. On the bus back to base now, hope it doesn't take too long!

Orca Show

Teida peak

More volcanic rocks

Pick up

Dead on 8am...very un-Spanish!

Yuk

Early start for holiday!

Tuesday, June 14, 2011

Oriental night tonight

Not especially fussed with Asian Food, I'll let you know how it goes!

Ahhh!!!!

It's such an early start tomorrow! 6.15am alarm!

A better sun burn day today

Very little is sore for a change...maybe just backs of legs. Day off tomorrow in an outing then fierce sun worship in Thursday and Friday! Enjoying my holiday so far...very relaxing so it is!

But very, very windy!

Bugger

Got burnt yesterday! Face and legs are very sore today!

El Medano

Another lively day in the sun...and WIND! It us incredibly windy today!

This morning we walked the 10 minutes or so to El Medano, the nearest town and very pretty it is too!

Lots if Spanish scenes bars and tapas type restaurants!

Additionally with the wind as it is there's a whole bunch of kite surfing and wind surfing going on, including the Czech national windsurfing championships which is a bit bizarre considering it is probably a 5-6 hour flight to Prague!

Anyway

Less sun today, off for walk into town first up, a swim in the sea on the way back maybe?!

Oh no!

Amanda struggling with her stomach, a wee hangover and some sunburn!

Me I gave weird patches of sunburn, and am a bit dehydrated but otherwise I'm good!

Plus missing work today!

Sunday, June 12, 2011

Few too many drinks

After the karaoke! Whoops, let's see how I feel tomorrow!

Annoying!

My Tiger Woods game is not working on my iPhone! Hmmmph!

Point I didn't think i'd be making...

And we'll see if it is the case later in the week, but, the food here is awesome and as a buffet style all you can eat!
Providing then I don't get any super hangovers, will this mean I out some weight on during my time here? Fingers crossed!

Another good day in the sun!

Burnt even more now, but hopefully with time and care, she'll be turning a brown tanned colour soon enough!

Day 1

In theory anyway and we start a but red! Awhoops...need to be a bit more sensible today!

Fluids and sunscreen, plus get the salt off after going in the salt water pool!

The view from the balcony!

Not bad hey!?

Made it!

Arrived 13 minutes early to Tenerife and got to our very nice hotel in time for lunch!
In addition we managed to grab an afternoon in the sun which was a bit of a bonus! A few red bits already, but more noticeable is the strength of the wind...something I didn't really think about, despite it being an island in the middle of the Atlantic!

On board!

Waiting to hit Tenerife up!

Friday, June 10, 2011

And...

Packed in record time!

Holiday

Tomorrow...off to Tenerife...whoop whoop!

Thursday, June 09, 2011

Long...

And pretty shit day! Time to go hone me thinks!

Wednesday, June 08, 2011

Sorry!

Been a busy day, so busy I've not had time for this! There you go!

Still home, sweet home!

Wonderful afternoon

Spent at my sisters today! Lovely to see the kids too! Here's Andrew giving a kiss to his little sister Kirsty!

It must be said...

Lockerbie to Edinburgh is one picturesque train journey!

Feel good about humanity!

Man on train made sure I got a seat on the train to Edinburgh! What a great guy!

Check out this video on YouTube:

Monday done!

Hopefully can get finished quickly so can see the Hodge family!

Lockerbie

Nice day, nicer lunch: Two Scotch pies and a bottle of Irn:Bru! Lovely!

Beautiful countryside

But you can't hear the Motorway next door or smell the cows!

No taxis

Until 9.30am...think it's a wee bit provincial here!

Good to see the hotel has a sense of humour!

Hope they still do after seeing the state of my bathroom after I go!

Good morning...

From Lockerbie!

Tired today, so early to be tonight I fancy!

Sunday, June 05, 2011

Finally in the warmth...

Of the train! Lovely!

On the bus now...

...to central station, then close to an hour to kill!

This doesn't look good so far!

Made it to Glasgow Airport!

Wait for bag then into Glasgow Central!

At Heathrow!

And not especially happy to be travelling on a Sunday!
Lockerbie or bust though!

Orchid...

Is only gone and started blooming!

Thursday, June 02, 2011

Water

But coming from the roof!

Oh dear!

Flooding in the living room means bad things for Amanda's shoes!

Wednesday, June 01, 2011

Heathrow

Made it sitting next to fattest man known alive!

Scotland

Mornings in Scotland are the best! Especially if the blackout curtains work, thus avoiding the 5am natural alarm call!

Short walk to work now! Hopefully done by 3pm!
