The Blog Reaches 500 Hits

Thanks to everyone who has continued looking at this blog over the past few months. We have managed to get 500 hits which is fab. As an incentive to keep looking over the coming months the person that takes us to 1,000 hits I will buy dinner for at a fast food outlet of their choice. No strings attached.

As for work Bekie is now doing a fair few shifts at the Smugglers' Inn and she is getting very busy. Mind you the food is good! The Birras bar is still up and down as far as business is concerned. However tomorrow is August 1st and alot of companies in Spain, France and Italy shut down for the summer to allow their employees to take leave. Let's see what happens!

Finally the Premiership starts in two weekends time. Spurs seem to be in good shape for at least a top 8 finish. I have entered a fantasy team in The Sun's Dream Team competition. Is anyone else thinking about a fantasy team/league?

The Dust Settles in Nerja

Well it is just Bekie and myself again now. Over the last few weeks we have enjoyed the company of Ivan, Keith & Nicole, Kirsty and Andrea and we have had a great time. Also thanks to Ivan, Keith & Nicole for putting up with our hot, cramped apartment.

Next month we will be visiting Steve & Tan in Isla Canela and in September we will be welcoming my mum and possibly Kirsty as well. Pictures will be published.

The Beards Update

Keith has discovered that there is already a band called The Beards. We are now thinking of a new name. Suggestions will be considered.

The future is bright - the future isn't The Beards.

The future is bright - the future is The Beards.

Bekie's Birthday

....was celebrated on Saturday gone. It was a jolly good evening. Unfortunately there are currently technical problems with loading photos onto Blogs so the piccies will be posted as soon as. However Bekie had many lovely cards and presents and is thoroughly enjoying being 34.

Nerja Swingers

I recently became aware that Nerja has a "swingers" community. This gives an added dimension to any couples' holiday here. If you are interested in finding out more please click on the relevant link in the left pane. Happy swinging!

Calm before the storm...

Next week promises to be fairly messy. Ivan lands in Granada tomorrow and will be in Nerja on Monday - he is staying with us all week. Kirsty and Andrea arrive in Nerja on Wednesday for a week. Keith and Nicole arrive on Thursday for five days. Pictures will be taken and published.

Pictures for the album

It has been mentioned to me that there are no pictures of Bekie and I on the Blog. In a bid to rectify this I have posted some lovely piccies.
