Flying Off Like Santa.




 I took this photo at the airport last Monday
 morning.

The two lads and their girlfriends surprised us with a birthday/Christmas  🎁 for yours truly and wifey.

No we weren't going to the Algarve but  kept  flying South.  Four and half hours on a Brian Hare plane

Any idea where we are ?  JayCee would definitely know our destination.  No it's not the Isle Of Man.  If you are a Norwich  City fan you will  know their nickname?

It was going to be warmer than the Irish Riviera that's for sure.  

I will take some photos for the blog.  Wish you were having a drink with us.

26 degrees  yesterday Saturday.  The hotel WiFi doesn't work and I have very little mobile phone data left.  If you do comment I will definitely reply even if it's some time early next week.

Hope you're all well?

English spuds.

  8. How very kind of your sons - Nigel and Humphrey and their girlfriends - Chardonnay and Hermione - to send you off to The Canaries for a pre-Christmas break. They must think a lot of you.

  9. It was kind of them YP. I just wonder what major house renovations have been carried out. They don't ask and knocking a hole in a wall is no problem for number 1 son.
