I have just completed my SEP exams with Virgin. Three days of intensive exams, in the classroom and in the rigs. Off to Montego Bay on Tuesday. I’m looking forward to a little R&R. Thats not all, at the beginning of March I have a two night Barbados and then a two night Orlando.

I don’t have the internet at home at the moment so all my internet needs are having to be catered for when I am down route.

Well, thats all for now. Talk soon.

I know its only been two weeks but its seems like a lifetime. Since my last post about my little girlie I have been away to LA and Cuba. I’ll start with the first as it chronologically makes sense. I took my mum with me to Hollywood, we had a fantastic time. Saw a few celebrity homes and the Hollywood sign. We walked along Hollywood Blvd, went shopping down Rodeo Drive and in Pasadena, we also rocked our socks off in Universal Studios. Oh yeah, how could I forget Johnny Rockets and ice cream at the Disney Store. Yum Yum!

More recently, so much so it was only yesterday. I got back from Havana with my brother, we spent three nights there, the weather wasn’t great but it was warm, much nicer than your bog standard british December day. We drank Mojitos by day and ate pizza by night (the latter being not so traditional of the region – well, what can you do?) We had a little trip to the beach on one of the days (photos coming soon – as with the ones from LA.) I love all the old cars, it is very in-keeping with the buildings.

I am off to Miami on Sunday and I have Alice’s fashion show on Tuesday when I return so I will be back to write about those, however I will try to be back in the meantime.

Just to keep you updated on my progress with my main site design overhaul. Its not going too badly, quite well actually. the design is very clean. I will implement ways so the use can change the stylesheet soon, but for now, check it out here.

As you all will know my homepage leaves a lot to desire, its all over the place. So I have decided to give it a complete make over and re-design it form scratch. If the site goes down over the next few weeks then thats me working my lil ass away trying to sort it out.

So its back to work from me.

I’ll keep you posted… (get it?) – bad joke.

I survived! I have just got home from my ‘around-the-world’ trip to the caribbean. Ok, so its not quite around the world, but near enough. There I was thinking that we would be flying straight to Antigua (as did the majority of the passengers) but no no! we were to stop off at Barbados first. This was not amusing to those passengers who had bought direct tickets to Antigua. Especially when our landing resulted in the aircraft going tech which left us sat on the ramp for about three hours.

Annnnnywaaaaay, moaning over. We finally made it to Antigua, and to our hotel. I had a very quick shower, and with the ‘bus juice’ in hand, I headed towards the room party next door. A few drinks later and a plate of fries, I headed back to my room and crashed for the night.

The next morning I went for the quickest sunbathe ever then back to my room for a half arsed attempt to sleep and back to the airport for what was to be a quick flight home.

And now here I am, home again. Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

Good morning and good night.

Well, all in all I’ve had a pretty productive day (4th October). My room is almost complete. I’ve been to IKEA to pick up the wardrobe and the new blinds and its looking good.

I’m off to Orlando in the morning, I’m not working though, I’m dead heading, the little perk I am yet to experience so it should be fun.

I am off to bed now as I have an early start.

Laters potatas!
