Interested in the Spain vs UK Christmas debate. For several years we've been subjected to a three line whip to stay with our daughter and family over Christmas in Wales. We escaped 4 years ago on a cruise that was a disaster so I'll not post details here!! Had telephone conversation last week - 'thinking about going to Spain'? Response was 'If that's what you want I don't mind' Cue - read between the words. Now decided that we'll go to Spain for new year instead and toe the line for Christmas. Ironically my father and step mother (who has 5 children) don't like all the hype and they like being on their own - as do we. I sound like a grumpy old woman.
Could recommend and internet provider? I currently use dial up. I do most of my surfing during 'working' hours while having a coffee etc! My job has just been disestablished (ie deleted) so feel no guilt. However dial up is infruriatingly slow and now seriously considering taking the plunge to broadband. I asked one of our IT guys at work and he suggested Sky. Any advance on that?

I have Virgin but it seems quite slow at the moment. Most people I talk to seem impressed with talk talk, another had Sky installed but spent ages trying to get it up and running.

I also have talk talk and have been very pleased with the service and enjoy the free calls abroad.

Lovely More. Now I know why things go missing they've been obliterated.
Thanks for the suggestions on broadband providers but just as confused as ever!

Sonia, I blame you for turning this into yet another IT type of thread & we were doing so well. 
I thought NIGHT was incredibly funny, aren't some people clever to make that ?
BTW : I'm trying to write my blog but keep getting distracted. I have Spanish banks for Cambank & also Banco Halifax, insurances, aircon & grilles on the go at the moment. I post one of them then think sh*t, I forgot to say that bit, & I have to go edit it.

Well, I'm going shopping as Aldi have a white loo seat on offer. Our suite is white in our cloakroom but the builders put a black seat on & I've always hankered after a white one & Aldi's have some today on their offer section. Only waited 28 years.

Well abbbb, he's managed to take the old black seat off, with brute force & a helluva lot of ignorance. ( I  him really ). New version is a teeny bit oversized as old wc is ancient. However, it looks good & it's WHITE not black. Oh, & new one moves slightly but it's WHITE ! For £8.99 I'll live with a slight wobble, have done for years.

When I moved into my house many years ago I decided I wanted to put up some shelves in the kitchen. Out came the electric drill and I marked up where the holes should be and started drilling. After minutes of drilling I wasn't getting anywhere so I had to admit defeat and ask for help.
I rang my B I L and he and my sister came over after they had been to the DIY store to pick up a pack of masonry drills. I was using wood drills

A few Nights ago siitting on the Terrace in my Garden i noticed something out of thye corner of my Eye.
One of my neighbours was passing and he stopped to watch as well.
I have a Family of Tropical House Geko's living under one of my Bourganvila bushes.
I have been watching them run about every night when it gets dark,this brought the conversation onto wildlife in Spain,he tells me there are still wolves,Bears,Eagles and loads of other wildlife here that i have never really thought about before.....
