And so we're off to Sunny Spain...




Yes, me and Mr T and the tumperkinettes are off to Spain this weekend! Andalucia, the Costa del Sol. I can hardly wait. It's been 14 years since I was last in Andalucia and 7 since I was last in Spain and I've loved every trip I've taken there. Ah, Spain, with its paprika flavoured crisps and aversion to fresh milk, its paper tableclothes with those plastic clips and those little oil/vinegar/salt/pepper sets. Sun, sea, sand and sunscreen. Happy boys, relaxed parents (I hope). Lots of books. Early to bed, late to rise, Siestas - gratuitous ones.


The truth is, I need a holiday. Badly. I've been burning those candles, baby. And the bags under my eyes are not looking good.


Apparently it was 37 degrees in Malaga yesterday. I am going to melt.


I'll be offline for a couple of weeks at least...

Thinking fondly of you and those siestas and paper tablecloths.
