Hola all,
We have just returned from 2 weeks in our apartment, phase2 number10,and had to be dragged kicking and screaming on to the plane. For those who hate returning from holidays to this wet wet country it is 10 times worse when you are staying in your own place. The squirrels were running up and down the trees and the temperature was 85 - 100.
Full time residents, for those who have not yet met them, there are Betty and Owen on phase1 and Mick and Sheila on phase 2. Visiting were Steve and Diane, Pat and Ray,Theresa and Ray, Nigel and Joanne. Much socialising and late nights. See Owen for some nifty clips that prevent the blinds being lifted from outside and Mick about deadbolt locks for the door. Also Mick has the phone number for a company that will pipe Sky to your apartment. For a one off payment of E600 you get BBC1, ITV1, CH4, Sky Sports1&2, Sky Movies1&2, Comedy, Cartoons and a mixed channel.
The apartment finish was good but much cleaning is needed. Before using the washer check all the pipe connections are tight, we weren't the only ones caught out. Get a supply of candles, we had three power cuts. Also make sure you have a bottle of water handy as the mains pump went off with the last power cut. Water for the toilet? Take a bucket to the swimming pool.
Thats all for now, if you have any questions get in touch. We will be out at the end of October, 15 weeks sob sob
.Alan & Glen
