Back in a nutshell

J has a cold. P has an ear infection in both. D has one ear infection. I have a chest infection. The holiday was good once they finishing rebuilding the part near us and we had made a complaint about this. A guy who assaulted someone in my care on holiday responded positively when I walked across a crowded entertainment area (where a lot of people knew what had happened) and told him I was pressing charges (which I didn’t but it had the required effect of tearful apologies and because I’d left to start packing and he only had J and the kids to tell he couldn’t be totally sure of what I would do. I did not go out of my way to tell him – suspense was everything.) Browsing over SSH was much quicker than I thought. Hotel Orquidea was excellent (even with the building) and the transfer help we got was excellent – so lots of positives for the rep and entertainment team at the hotel (another post on this soon). My love affair with expresso has been rekindled. And I think it was only around 500 pictures taken. I’m hoping the overall quality is up though and I got some really nice portraits of the girls too using the f1.8
And D’s boyfriend who had been looking after the house just got himself dumped for having the party (or more) here resulting in some breakage, some stealing and one livid me.

Backups being done, machine login passwords being set, Zen filled with music + videos and holiday reading includes Louis Theroux, Jeremy Clarkson, Terry Pratchett and Richard Dawkins. I miss reading, I should make time to read more. I should make time to do a lot of things though – just like everyone else wants to do more but those days just aren’t long enough to squeeze it all in. And off to Hotel Orquidea in Gran Canaria we are about to go.
