six week on..june 17th...

Just spent a very nice hour listening to Si Cranston on radio two with Terry Wogan, and feeling quite relaxed because finally did some rock un roll dancing last night... may have been rock and roll Cuban style but well acceptable....two or three sangrias to oil the limbs may have helped...

The diary is slowly getting filled, Spanish line dancing on a Thursday evening, grapevine slide is the same in any language...line dancing, mixed with exercise routine and throw in a bit of folk...different..

This week at work has been an experience ...We should have been wearing a nurses uniforms...  I have spent a lot of time at the hospital, clients, slipped, fell, tripped, resulting in broken ankles, legs, and thighs,  Not an experience I want to repeat.... I felt useless not being about to speak Spanish to help the clients...nightmare, sadly one customer is staying in hospital and will be staying there for a quite a while...

Moral of this story is MAKE SURE you bring your European health card and your national insurance number and keep in on you at all times.... and your FULL health policy ... not just the policy details... BE PREPARED..it may happen to you....

Six weeks on and I am beginning to get into the swing of the Menorcan life style.. feeling very proud of myself when I go out @ 11pm and return 3am... only to met the Spanish people just coming out to party... by the time November comes I will be completely out of sinc with the British...


The weather here is fantastic.. suddenly got very hot...managing to find an hour or two to catch a few rays.. turning a nice rusty colour...biggest problem, I am struggling to fit into my clothes, too many meals out, too many glasses of vino and not enough exercise, still brown rolls look better than white rolls...or so we all keep reassuring each other...even the once skinny teenagers are struggling..

Official day off tomorrow so just deciding which beach resort to hit, meeting up with a cosmos rep and a saga rep,, so will be an afternoon of story telling...stories  you would not believe !!! about our wonderful holiday makers... Remember the next time you feel compelled  to complain,,, its not my fault...  you are in a hotel with "fat " people..

off to pack my beach bag... xx
