January Celebrating New Year in Gran Canaria with David and some friends, but very windy and unable to go to the beach. Got back home and both with chest infection cause by the wind. John and Liam, who came with us also got ill, so it was not a very good holiday!
February Recovering at home and trying to get David in good shape again. This has been a mild winter and no snow but nice sunny cold sunset! Applied for an upgrade at work but that means a big decision to make if I was offer the job.
March Back to the Island of pleasure with Ian and Leo, and enjoying Carnival and this time the beach! I accepted the new job and that meant changing my lifestyle a bit but not much. I had a lovely birthday celebration that lasted for days!
April Still cold in London but the first glimpse of spring with Bulbs coming out and starting giving some colour to the garden. Easter day day was nice, going to church after sometime and taking my niece later in the month to see "Cats" in the west end.
May During this month I usually visit the north of the UK, and find Blackpool an amusing place. Meeting friends and having a fun time. It was Also Richard's Birthday and we all head to Madrid to celebrate in Style and enjoy not only the day, but also the whole night!
June With My mum coming to visit me, I planned a nice four day cruise to take her and David to Amsterdam and Antwerp. We enjoyed it very much and the weather has been great. We also visit some nice Houses and nice Gardens along with my niece.
July The peak of the month was a wonderful cruise with my mum to Greece and Turkey. It was my mum first visit to the Greek Islands and my first visit to Istanbul. I think she enjoyed it too much and would like to repeat the pleasure of cruising.
August Summer in full moon and enjoying the good weather here in London. Went to Wembley to see Chelsea-Arsenal with Iain and my friend Kees from Holland came and stayed a few days with us. Potting around the garden and discovering new flowers each day!
September Spending a quiet month here in London and visiting Bournemouth for the caffmos gathering. John and Peter came and stay with us for a nice time and enjoy London. Bad news at work as my job is coming to an end and need to apply for it again.
October This month I was introduced to different plays and shows I have never seen before in London. Also the Rugby world cup kept me excited. And to finish with a U2 concert at the O2.
November A very intense month as David had a mini stroke and made me realized how unfit I am as well. Managed to join my friends in Gran Canaria and had some fun moments.
December So the end of the year has come and trying to survive at work to secure my job. Also have the chance to visit Amsterdam and Norwich. Have some visitors for Xmas including Manuel from Paris.
