New Design

New design for this blog...I'm not sure I like it as yet, but we'll leave it as it is for now and decide what changes if any need making later!

Weekend

Woohoo!
A very nice chilled one planned too which is great!

Don't want, or plan to be here post 5pm!

Buzzing for Spain vs Scotland

Hoping Scotland pull something ridiculous out of the bag! Hmm unlikely!

Just horrible...

Being back at work!

So weekend

Away was fantastic, a quality 30th birthday present from Katy, Iona and Ed mixed in with loads of fun celebrating Andrews 2nd birthday! Plus always great to see everyone and Kirsty is an absolute belter of a girl!

Gleneagles for Saturday night was some night, the service, quality of rooms and swimming pool area was unreal! Ok, I appreciate that there are issues with things being overpriced (£18.40 for two drinks for example!) but it's nice to see how the other half live occasionally!
The breakfast the next day was pretty special too I thought, shame we had a bit too much to drink the night before to properly enjoy it!

Andrews birthday went well, he was understandably overwhelmed, but he coped well and kept everyone amused! Kirsty also was so well behaved, she's a proper little belter!

Very much enjoyed the golf today too despite playing a but indifferently! Weather stayed nice and it was lovely to play a course destined for big things...or at least big events! I think ed was right when he said the course will come in for criticism, it's a bit bland and although long, length doesn't cause pros trouble these days! It's more the lack of decisions required that is disappointing! Still a great course, a great day and a great weekend!

And after a cracking weekend away

It's time to head home!

I can't fucking wait

To leave my job! Ahhhhhhhh!

Friday, September 30, 2011

Slow commute on tube...

But I gave a seat for the first rime in weeks, so that's not so bad!

Aha, earlier defective train on the line...the Victoria line with all these new, state-of-the art trains in it!

Oh yes...

What a struggle today is proving to be!

Desperate times!

That lack of sleep

Is making today an effort!

It turns out!

Waking up at 3am and not getting back to sleep makes you very tired!

For fucks sake

I can't sleep

Dallas/Fort Worth Airport

Our home for a few hours!

On board

At Las Vegas...next stop Texas!!!

The strip...

From the airport

American toilets

Are very strange! They don't seem to extend far enough up nor down to keep ones modesty in tact!

All checked in...

Ready to head home!

All my bags are packed...

I'm ready to go! Sob sob

Boo

Action Stations to get us home!

Last day

Done and done!
We headed downtown today to the stratosphere to go up it and then also take on some of the rides, the one where you got blasted up the needle was fantastically scary!
Then we went to Freemont Street to see the neon lights and it was essentially a street party there!
I liked the 80's show, mainly as I fancied one of the singers! Oops!

Last day

Of the holiday and so far it's been spent mostly by the pool!
Heading downtown now to the stratosphere and Fremont Street before hopefully bring back and in bed not too early!

Amazing

I have to tell you 'O' was absolutely phenomenal viewing! Divers, acrobats, swimmers, gymnasts...the works!

Here's us (our hotel at least!) at night

Time

Doesn't exist in Las Vegas, it's really very weird and off putting!

Another nice day in Vegas

Mostly today spent by the pool!
Off now to see the Cirque de Soleil at the Bellagio perform their hit show 'O'
Should be good hopefully!

And out we go again!

Hopefully we win big this time!

American TV

Just brilliant!!!
In between the adverts that is!!!

Things you do only on holiday

Aside from drink and eat too much...showering more than once or twice is definitely on that list!

Excellent weather...

To sit by the pool!

Oh no

$10 down already! :(
