YET ANOTHER TWO
WEEKS GONE !!
Firstly we had Lee my nephew visit us and to be truthful
it was quite a cultural, knowledgeable week as we went
touring the Island.
Andy drove us to the
highest point of the island to Betancuria and me being a
little afraid of heights this was not my favourite
drive. When you look over the side it’s a sheer drop and
when the big guaquas (that means bus) meet you on a
narrow point it just breathe in and pray.
We then arrived at Pajara
a lovely village, quaint and authentic with beautiful
flowers and trees and being as we had Toby with us he
thought it was his birthday with such a choice of wee
stops.
Hungry we were by now and
we found this lovely old bar where we had fresh rolls
filled with ham and cheese and delicious cold water,
which we needed as the temp was 39 degrees.
Back into the Jeep and
Andy decided to take us to the old ship wreck, now this
is a real eye-opener as the road if you can call it that
is rough, thank god for M&S bras.
The wreck has
deteriorated since our last visit and I would imagine
the sea will swallow it up soon, it is such a sad sight
seeing this once majestic ship end up with no dignity
being battered by the rough waves.
It was great day out and well worth a visit.
We all arrived home quite
tired but still a night out is needed so we went to
Michael and Leanne’s Bar CASBAHS next to Blue Rock where
we had wonderful potato skins, chips with melted cheese
and delicious chicken pieces coated in lemon pepper
crumbs followed by a cold cider.
I THINK Lee had a good
time but I do know Bar Luna’s till takings were down
after he left. Pedro said he had run out of Jim Bean and
no more even on the island??????
Waved and hugged him
goodbye thinking I can now have a restful weekend and
sunbathe and recharge my batteries but alas Sue &Trev
are having yet another B.B.Q as cousin Barry &Julie are
over.
So Sunday afternoon at
5.00pm we arrive with our bag of spare clothes as ending
up in the pool is inevitable, Who ended up wet only Andy
as in a tipsy stupor he yet again slips and splash .I
must say this always happens and those who know him the
falling asleep on a bar stool follows.
What could I not love about him??
So with water dripping
from him, he attempts to play darts with our hosts but
alas he also looses this game, Sue I must say showed us
all up and even though she is very blonde she won the
trophy but as you can see by the photo “women’s work is
never done” so mopping up Andy’s drippings was quite a
sight especially as her bling bling was sparkling as
much as the pool.
Now the dart board was
getting quite hard to hit now as we all seemed to see a
little double, not that we hit any doubles so all to the
Karaoke room to show Trevor how to sing.
Now Andy sang a duet with Trev and I was really
impressed, as maybe if Trev had met him earlier, he
could have auditioned for SLADE.
Barry, well I was really
surprised he sang Elvis better then Elvis himself and
when he bellowed out “LOVE ON THE ROCKS” I thought Neil
Diamond had been invited to our party.
You name it we sang it
but I must tell you what a good friend Trev &Sue are, so
thoughtful they always bring me a magnifying glass as I
can’t read the writing, they look after us old ones!!
OLD ONES did I say.
Get ready for my next statement
I am having an eye job done???
Yes its come to that I am going to London on Wednesday
to do a celebrity thing .I have included this photo of
me to show you a before and after as I am having the
suitcases removed from under my eyes and the extra
baggage from the top.
I think I am very brave,
so I thought I would share my experiences with you so if
anyone has been thinking about it, then you can see how
I go on and when I look 10 years younger you will all be
queuing up at the TRANSFORM CLINIC.
So read my diary on the next two weeks Starting on
Thursday when the limo will pick me up at 4.30 am to
take me to London to go under the knife.
Am I scared? No I am not just so excited as the thought
of looking 10 years younger over takes the fear.
The only person I feel sorry for is my sister-in-law
Nita as she is coming with me and nursing after the op
is done and then I am driven straight back to Bristol
while still under general anesthetic. Nita said if we
get stopped by the police they might mistake us for
Patsy&Eddie as in AB FAB.
Hope I can see to write next week, Just joking???
