Deal
Thanks for all my wonderful birthday presents which have been slowly arriving over the last week, the hamper from Diana was a wonderful suprise, sweets have just about gone already, though have been shared. I wore my new dress from Mum and dad to work yesterday. Can't believe that is is December next week. Happy 40th Diana and happy first wedding anniversary David and Diana, happy birthday Joanna and Brian. think thats the next week covered.
Got my first deal on Tuesday, so providing it goes through it will be worth a bit, Nice to break the duck.
I can't believe how much snow the UK has already, madness! How weird it was seeing a picture on facebook of our house covered in snow, made me realise how much I want this to work out here, the whole thought on snow is unappealing here, especially when we were sat outside until midnight last night, albeit in cardigans but even so. We have had quite a bit of rain this last week but mainly during the night but it is nearly December.
Well I better go and dy my roots and get ready Natalia's friend is over later.

Linda Visit
Linda has been over this week we have seen her a few times which has been lovely. We went up to Los Gigantes today.
Yesterday after I finished work we went for a meal and then to a bar where Natalia became the star again, she is so content expressing herself over here.
Have so much to do before tomorrow, will write more when I have a little time.

Work Work Work
Can't believe that another week has gone!!!
James and I have worked long hours this week. James has had a couple of deals I haven't as people keep saying it is a numbers game and if I keep doing what I am doing then it will happen. The problem where I am is people are required to invest big bucks but when they do it is a good payday, and at this time of year holidays are cheaper so there isn't as much financial logic. Having said that I have achieved a record "the longest presentation ever at the Palacio de Isora" I unintentionally beat the last record by a good 20 minutes 5 hours but timed it very badly as I finished at 2.55 and the canteen closes at 3pm and it is a 10 minute walk, also it meant I was free for the 3 O Clock wave, my tour after that only lasted 2.30hrs as our hotel was not their typical holiday.
James is quite ill with flu at the moment, though still at work.
Linda arrives tomorrow and we are all looking forward to it although the house is a tip due to long hours and James being ill.
Temperature has dropped here the last week, only about 20 degrees and I can actually feel the drop, having said that still in shorts and tee shirt.
We still haven't found the time to hunt for a new property though Playa San Juan and Alacala are top of the list this week.
James took kids to ToysRuS this week, Ethan has picked some lego bits for his birthday and Natalia has her Rollerblades for Xmas, it was something we though she needed to try on.
Taking kids to the pool later about to iron outside now.

Doctors
Well it was only a matter of time until Natalia ended up at the doctors, she has conjuctivitus. She has had most the week off. Fiesta Monday but loaded with cold, off school Tuesday, eye started to flare, I sent her back on Wednesday, only to recieve a phonecall whilst I was getting my hair cut, must have looked fab running through Los Cris at that point. Doctors by Thursday, drugged up Friday. She is okay in herself now but has managed to spread it to the other eye.
Busy week at Sol Melia, look out for the new advert in the UK probaly after Xmas which they are currently filming at our hotel.
Not much more to report.
