Today is Simons birthday 😀   …so when the alarm went off at 6am, I jumped out of bed to make him a lovely cup of tea.  What more could one want to start the day off with ;-D

Simons ‘surface cover’ this morning, so has to be down at Crystal by 6:45am, then on the boat making sure everyone who’s on the boat should be, noting instructors & students times in/out of the water after each dive,  noting equipment no’s, counts and on standby, just incase of an emergency   ….usually the day we start an Open Water course in the afternoon, we have to do the morning surface cover  ;-(

Fingers crossed, Simon should be back around midday for lunch to open his cards & prezzies

Tonight, I’ll be taking him for a lovely romantic meal

First things first…   …a special message for my God daughter Iona who is 6 today

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR IONA
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We hope you have a very special day with all the family.  We’ll look forward to hearing all about it  ;-D
Enjoy your tea party and have lots of fun.  We miss you!!!!!

Oh what I’d give to be 6 again 😀   Today, I feel like an eighty year old  …After the Rescue course yesterday, I had a celebratory beer with my students, then joined Simon & a few of the Crystal crew for another,, the we all piled down to ‘Safety Stop’ to play Settlers of Catan (board game).  4 hours later and after multiple beers we ended the game prematurely due to the place closing, and thought it was then a great idea to venture down to Sairee to ‘Lotus’ beach bar to drink more  …where had our common sense gone?   Si’s adamant that it was my idea ;-D  I’m so so glad we had today off  …

I woke up this morning to find the internet on!!! Crossing my fingers that it stays that way.

While Jen is teaching a Rescue Course, and I have been unable to access the internet… I have been playing with Jens camera. It rarely gets used, which is such a shame… so I have made it my mission to get some decent photos from it..

After a couple of hours playing with settings… I came up with these 2 below. Click them to make them larger for the full effect!

All thats left to say is, I hope Mum enjoyed Mothers Day, and is was great to speak on the phone… hope you like your little pressie today…
