Recent news

Well we have returned and recovered from our week in Spain.

We stayed in a rented villa near to Alicante in a town called Algorfa. Algorfa is about 15 miles from the coast and up in the foothills of the surrounding mountains. Its very barren, with lots of bare rock and earth, but at the same time stunning. Oh and I almost forgot to mention the Orange, Lemon and Lime groves.

The weather was very good to us with daytime temperatures at a steady 30 degrees (89 F) with clear sky's and long warm evenings. The pleasure of sitting outside watching the sun go down behind the mountains cannot be overstated.

Back in the UK we are all back to work, and getting on with saving for our next trip.

I'm working for a Japanese / German computer giant, assigned to a retail banking account supporting the Windows 2003 roll out for the server infrastructure.

Mini Limey is fast approaching her third birthday, and seems like she has swallowed the dictionary. The inevitable WHY questions can only be a few days away..... Mini is also disappointed that back home we don't have a swimming pool 20 feet from our place of residence.

Try clicking through to my FLICKR pictures to see all about our holiday in monotonous detail... Especially the sunsets. Its just possible that I got slightly carried away with them.
