I will be taking YOUR better halfs back pills with me next week so that I can dose him up as soon as he starts to double over...usually within 30 minutes. Like the idea of your gel flip flops. Have an image of flip flops left in the fridge that cool the gel and keep toes cold. Tent takes 4 hours to erect……hubby sweats and pants whilst I nod encourgement over a glass of diet coke.

What a range of tents they have too, all neatly folded in little bags - perfect for your Tarifa trip. Do you have one of these supa-dupa tents with lots of compartments?

The idea of your other half going away is always better than the reality, don't you think. Hope the dead birds are now in a better place, birdy heaven (the skip across the road).

I've still go the kitties, but with a few interested parties thinking of having one for keeps. Best of all I managed to find someone to kitten sit so I could have a couple of nights out - hee, hee, missed them though! I won't put the kitten sitter details here - in case she's overwhelmed with enquiries, but if anyone desperate for a kitten sitter I can put them in touch. Lovin' your blog - one of my favourites!

]]> Comment on Naga Thai Puerto Banus restaurant by Bart Woodhouse http://www.helpful-ideas.com/index.php/uncategorized/naga-thai-puerto-banus-restaurant/#comment-405 Bart Woodhouse Tue, 20 Jul 2010 22:59:47 +0000 http://www.helpful-ideas.com/?p=1880#comment-405 You had a different experience from ours just this week. The staff were very rude, in fact, we arrived at 3 pm for lunch and noted that they closed at 4. They took our order and drinks were brought. We waited for our food only to be told at about 3.30 that the kitchen had closed and we had to pay for our drinks and leave! I have owned several restaurants in the US and have never come across such rude and frankly bizarre behaviour. So be warned to turn up at least two hours before their advertised closing times which quite frankly are a load of baloney... of course, we will never return and in fact, found a great sushi place almost next door which was excellent.
