Ok, I think the B subject has been done to death now, so I'm moving on to other things.
Tomorrow I'm going to Spain with my husband, where we will stay for one whole month - yaay!
It's not a new venture for us, as for the last couple of years we have spent a part of our winters there. The climate is so much better than in England - hopefully the temperature will be in the 70s, which is just right.
We're staying in a hotel that we've stayed in before, and the food and accommodation are excellent.
So while you are going about your everyday lives and doing your chores, I will be sitting on our balcony gazing at the sea, or taking a walk on the promenade, or dancing to the live band in the hotel, or watching a flamenco show, or sitting on the beach, or paddling in the sea, or....get the picture?
I may send you a post or two - will I be gloating? You bet!

A whole month?? *mutters under my breath* Oh.. Clears my throat. I hope you and your husband have a great time. *mutters a little more*
I think I would gloat too. I truly do wish you and your husband have the best of time, and safe travels.

@TexanTornado No, not gloating yet (well perhaps a teeny bit ).

@TexanTornado 'Chortles with delight' at the prospect of future gloating sessions.

@Marilynda Yes we were there in March, and I did quite a few bubbles from there. It's such a relaxing place.

@jabo I don't suppose I need to instruct you to enjoy yourself, but do spare a thought for the rest of us while you sit on the balcony in the sunshine, eyes resting on limpid water and with something stronger than water slipping down your throat.

Boy, some people really know how to rub it in
Now, don't forget to pack a camera and interrupt all that trivial jolly good stuff so you can take lots of pictures to share OK!!!
Well, I told you, didn't I???

"I will be sitting on our balcony gazing at the sea, or taking a walk on the promenade, or dancing to the live band in the hotel, or watching a flamenco show, or sitting on the beach, or paddling in the sea, or...." Living in Fort Lauderdale and being close to Miami I do that all year round!! Have a great month!

@GreatMartin Goodness, we don't need room service! We have three full meals a day provided, and we have a job to manage that. And we can drink enough without having it in our room.

@crazyhorseladycx Oh cripes, no repairs and bad weather doesn't sound like a good mixture.
It's actually cloudy here this morning (it's 10.30am) which is why I'm having half an hour on here prior to us going out. Hopefully the sun will come through by then, but even if it doesn't it's still pleasant.
Love you.

Once you have returned, please let us know the name of the hotel and the specifics. I am looking for a nice warm winter place. Trying Key West this year.

@ElizabethWallace I should think Key West would be lovely, but your side of the Atlantic wouls be a bit far for my husband to fly now. Spain is only a 2 and a half hout plane ride from us.

@jaboUK You are lucky. Everything is far from me, except Mexico. I won't be going there again.

@Marty1 I would not drive in South America. You don't know the laws or the justice system there. I have traveled a great deal, even took students to East Berlin when the wall was still up. But, there are places I will not go.
