Have had a few busy days - if anything else has gone wrong - its gone wrong with knobs on. Ok i ordered sky on friday.... the tv installer came today ... i am now sitting at my computer with the modem sitting in the middle of the floor and wires everywhere. The computer was moved to the opposite corner, the tv was moved to the corner were the computer was and the house is a tip. but i have sky - with the card not registered seeing as i had the telephone preference service on my phone line and it was cocking up the server on the sky box...

We dragged our tired feet to the Airport Express bus stop, jumped on the bus and got off at Kowloon Station. We collected our hand luggage, packed away our shopping and jumped on the train to the airport. The flight was on time and before we knew it, we were back in Blighty.

That's the thing about going to New Zealand, I hate coming back home. Somebody asked me a couple of weeks ago "What's so great about NZ?"

"It just is......" I replied.

After having a few days off, I was meant to be flying Casablanca to Paris Orly today and back. The flight was scheduled for 08.10 Local (09.10 UK time). We have to be at the pick up point at least 1 hour 40 mins before and I try to get there 2 hours before, to get an earlier bus do I can get the paperwork for the flight squared away. So I awoke at 05.15 Local, got showered, dressed in my really cheesy Royal Air Maroc Nylon/Polyester uniform (sticks like no other, thank goodness I have my own shirts, Van Heusen Aviatior Pilot shorts 80% cotton) pop my M&S shoes on (the ones they give us are awful) and have my cornflakes for breakfast. Just got into one of the great taxi's thay have here, today a knackered old Peugeot 205 tell the driver...

The next day we were all up bright and early ( someone had forgot to pull the black out blind across )

We went for our brekki, then had a lounge beside the pool. Kids were in the pool before we could blink. The pool was nice, but the look on the kids SHIVERING chin's let me know it was not as warm as it may look

After dinner, we decided to take a walk to the beach. The beach was a very short walk away from our hotel, with plenty of shops along the way to keep us going. As we walked down to the beach we noticed a BRITISH BAR!! It was a very friendly little place right next to the beach, good music, british grub and sports channels!! I thought " why would anyone go abroad just to go eat British food...
