Have a Good One x

2011. How has that one crept up on me. I remember thinking forty odd years ago that I would be sixty and now I´m staring it in the face! I bought my new diary today. Another book full of shopping lists and such but I do love opening the first page of a new year. I´m hoping for a really happy one for me and mine.

For anyone reading this I wish you a really HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Christmas!

I hope everyone has enjoyed Christmas. We have a really nice one with lots of nice stuff to eat and a few laughs down the local!

A Strange Couple of Weeks...

It has been one bad thing after another for ages and I really don´t feel in the mood for the Christmas celebrations this year.

The first shock was the death of a very good friend of ours in Cornwall. We have been mates for well over twenty years and I would have liked to support his wife Barbie during her bad time. A card never seems to be enough.

Philip, my eldest grandchildren´s Grandpa passed away the following day which was another knock.

They say that these thing happen in three´s and it was true in our case as another friend of ours died last Wednesday. We went to his funeral yesterday.

A quiet Xmas I think and I hope 2011 will be happy for everyone.

A Really Bad Day

This is our mate John Turner who´s birthday we were about to celebrate today. Unfortunately, he passed away this morning on his way to the local hospital.

Poor John xx

Shona´s Visit

Shona came over for a week and brought her three year old grand daughter Kayla. I was a little worried as the apartment isn´t child friendly but Kayla wasn´t a problem and she bonded with Clio.

Unfortunately, the weather was awful. It rained every day and we had about three hours sun all through the week. At least Kayla had one afternoon down the beach.

Off they went to the airport on Friday afternoon but ended up staying in a hotel overnight because of bad weather in one of the other Canary Islands. Poor them as they didn´t land in Glasgow until nine on Saturday evening!

Her worst visit to date!
