Sorry for the lack of blogs.. its been hectic!

I’m finally back teaching after my back saga and we’re in the process of moving.   Yes, we’ve finally found somewhere, which we both like, has loads of room, great views and for the money, is a pretty good deal. We’ve even got a spare room, so maybe might even get a lodger  ..who knows 😀

After spending for what seems forever stuck at home with my back, I went out for a couple of test dives.  I was pretty cautious putting on my equipment in the water but all was fine.  The next day I started a 6 person Open water. The group were pretty good thankfully with no major issues.

Si’s been working hard, he’s a stack of UK work and has been shuttling back and forth on his bike with all our belongings.  It’s been so great to have space, be able to go from room to room, have 2 bathrooms and to finally put my hammock up  🙂  Here are some piccies!!

Unfortunately, Si must has eaten something that didnt agree with him last night.  He got up several times to be sick and again this morning  …poor thing  ..he never moans and even did another trip get more of our stuff from our old place.

Glad to say that my back is nearly recovered.   Simon took me to see a Chiropractor yesterday and he certainly cracked all that there was to crack  ..which certainly loosened things up.

As the weather’s been unpredictable and it’s been impossible for the Longtail (boat) to go out, Si’s been able to take time off  but he’s still full on with his UK work.  

For the first time in ages, he’s been able to lie in, not that he really does, as he always up early working on something or other.

Anyway, what have we done?    …well we had lunch with our friend Tim in Sairee at ‘Through the looking glass’  It’s a tiny shop/bakery where they do lovely fresh rolls, made to order, pasties and a great selection pastries/cakes.  There’s only a couple of tables outside in which to sit as it’s mostly takeaway.

After lunch, we cruised past the Aquamaster shop, to pick up my regulator, as it was in for repair and then went on to check out a house for rent  ….the manager or whatever he was seemed nice, showed us around, apologized for the state it was in (smell & dirt wise) ..it was a lot bigger and even though it it was messy, nicer than I’d anticipated  ..nearing the end of our viewing, another chap came in to view it and only then did the chap say that this guy had first dibs and that he’s let us know  ..since then we’ve not heard a word.  I’ve text and called the chap but still no response  ..pretty annoying to be honest.

In the evening, we had a staff meeting to attend, seeing it’s coming up to busy/crazy season, we need to work together,  Hopefully for the next 5/6 weeks, everything will run like clockwork but I doubt it!

Meeting over, a few drinks at the bar and then ‘Cafe Del Sol’ for takeaway dinner…
