Thank you to those that let me know you liked my video. In fact the only person who told me the writing was better was Mark. Though I am aware that it's easier for those who enjoyed it to tell me. Harder for those that thought it was rubbish! One friend suggested I mix it up with a vlog on some weeks and the blog on others! I'm undecided, but this week we're back to normal. I just don't know what to do! You can read this discretely in an office when a video is too obvious but you can listen to the video and get to do other stuff!

When I was away it occurred to me how weird it is to walk about half naked (in a bikini), popping to the bar etc. And yet just a few hours later, if I walked the same walk in my underwear I'd get a few strange looks. And yet my underwear probably covers more than my bikini does. Does this not strike you as absurd? If I walked down the street in Peterhead in my knickers and bra (apart from being freezing cold) I'd be arrested! Crazy man. 

Something else that bothered me was how much I ate. We went to the steak house and I had filet mignon and it was delicious! But I could only manage half. It was so hard leaving this delicious beef on my plate. If I was here I'd take it home, but on holiday there is no where to take it. The best I could hope for was that a member of staff could take it for a very very pampered dog! I think it's my upbringing. My grandparents lived through the war when food was scarce. Then this was passed to my mum who was born during the war. To leave food was criminal and I hate to do it now. I'll never get used to it and I'll never apologise. 

I treat myself to a bracelet when I was in Grenada. Great value compared to the UK. I love it and will wear it every day. I almost gave it to Mark to give to me for Christmas but decided that that was stupid. I bought it with my pension money i.e. MY money lol. It's not a Christmas present! Lol. 

Don't save anything for a special occasion, being alive is a special occasion.

Maybe you'll get a video next week. It might depend on what I have to say lol. Thank you for reading and I hope you're not disappointed not seeing my sunny face!
