DAY 10 Monday
Well thisll be a short report, coz we did nowt.
Rang Dave at 6
Err, Dave?
Its Dave.
Ive broke yer house
He told uz where to find the trip switch it was outside, behind the hedge and through the garden. I wouldnt have been goin there at 11 last night with me torch!
I had to wake the kids to find the torch but they soon turned over and went back to sleep.
Light restored, me n V read the boards and I did yesterders trippy notes.
By 9.30 the kids were still soundo. Well, we had had a late night last night, so we decided no hurry today, wed let them sleep as long as they needed.
Todays plan was to be Islands of Adventure then Boggy Creek Airboats for a night cruise. IoA wasnt a problem as wed probably only need half a day and Boggy Creek was tonight and near home anyway. I rang to book the airboat and they arent doin night tours at the moment try their other boat near Kiss Old Town. They needed a minimum party of 6 and had no other bookins as yet. We could book, leave credit card details but they couldnt guarantee a cruise unless someone else rang. We decided to leave it a night in with beer was much more attractive.
I went to Albertsons to get groceries. Just the essentials milk, cookies, crisps and beer.
We all love the mint cream Orios and I found chocolate and peanut butter Orios too which are delish (if yer like peanut butter). For beer I got more Sam Adams and Ice House for a change of pace once in a while and some Speckled Hen coz it was there. And couldnt resist a Homer Simpson bottle opener. $7.35, it says ..
Mmmmmm , B e e r . glug, glug, glug, glug wooohooo ! Yes, Yes YES!
Its very tasteful.
Got home and Gaz was up but announced Julie to be poorly. Shes had a heavy cold since the day before we left which she will give to me!
Anyway, when our Julies not well, she sleeps. Gaz said shed been coughin and splutterin in her sleep and was very wheezy. So I said shed be better in her room, i.e. not givin me any more germs and Id felt quite ill anall yer know when I woke up, but didnt like to make a fuss.
So what to do? It was really hot outside and likely to be one of them days V would prefer to sit and do nowt rather than traipse around, and the bairn was poorly and I could have a drink!
This Villa larks all well and good, but V wont drive over here. (She can barely manage to get from A to B at home!) So Im limited to one beer a day early on so it dissipates before we go home then the odd three or four when we get home. Have yer noticed how early we are comin home on this holider? And why do yer think the trippy notes are sooo possessed with me meager beer intake.
Mmmmmm , B e e r . glug, glug, glug, glug wooohooo ! Yes, Yes YES!
Well stay home.
Not wantin to be a couch potato, and knowin V likes to see the neighbourhood , I suggested a brief stroll to stretch our legs, and take in the locality. Theres shops nearby and a Brits Pub. We could pop in the pub if shed like that. It might be nice and a change of scenery. And she does like to see the locals and stuff. Can we, can we, can we?
We left Gaz a walkie talkie in case he needed us and we set off to the pub I mean the shops.
10 minutes later we were there, but it didnt open till Noon, so we went round the shops. 12:01 and we were in the Pub. A nice pint of Boddies for me and a Pina Colada Breezer for V. Very nice thank you.
I was gonna get another while V finished her Breezer but shed gulped it down. She thought it was very nice and whereas a drink normally lasts her two of mine, shed drunk it almost in one. V has no sense of strength and thought it was lovely but mild. Id tasted it and knew if she had another in this heat Id have had to send for the Boy to carry her home, so we went while she could make it on her own.
Back home, Julie was up and treatin her cold with local remedies Lays (sour cream flavour) goldfish and cheesypuffs. She was feelin a bit better, then?
She was over the moon with our new bottle opener and I relaxed in me chair, happy in the knowledge Id never have to get meself a beer out of the fridge again.
Who wants to get Dad a beer?
Mmmmmm , B e e r . glug, glug, glug, glug wooohooo ! Yes, Yes YES!
Ahh! Perfect.
The kids went swimming and me n V sat flickin at the telly. We were gonna sit round the pool but theres no beer allowed. We were gonna sit on the patio and watch from there, but it was in shade. We were gonna sit out front where the sun was, but couldnt be bothered to get off the couch.
The kids came in after a while just in time really
Mmmmmm , B e e r . glug, glug, glug, glug wooohooo ! Yes, Yes YES!
V watched Short Circuit while I had forty winks 10 at the beginnin , 20 in the middle and another 10 at the end. Our Gaz had gone to lie on his bed and ended up asleep all afty.
By 4 o clock we were bored and I was feelin guilty about wastin me holider but Id had three bottles and the Boddies by then, so drivin was out. Julie was happy watchin TV and playin her CDs so me n V went on the boards and had another beer.
After a while V went back to the telly and I went onto Sunderlands site to see what the team news was for Saturder.
Wilkinson and Cotterell sacked!
I didnt know whether to laugh or cry, but Im more bothered about missin the Bolton game on Satdy now we might just have a chance now. Well, I had been drinkin and it WAS hot.
I read all the sports pages and fanrooms I could find, lookin for info and rumour for who the next Manager might be.
John Gregory?
Oh whoop-e-doo.
The Boy got up just after I logged off. I told him the news and after a couple of minutes he asked if he could use the Internet and he sat and did exactly the same as me.
These is tough times for us Sunderland supporters.
Wed decided to get a Chinese Take-away delivered as part of our at home day and our J was itchin to get it terminal illness doesnt get her down.
Shes a fanatic of all US sitcoms well, Friends and all the kids ones. Ever since we told her we were stayin at FatTowers, shes wanted a take-away so she can get one of them little cartons they all eat from. She even ordered noodles just in case thats all they use the cartons for.
We ordered half portions got stuck like that at Jungle Jims once and were stuffed. It was very nice thank yer ; all came in little cartons, so the bairn was delighted.
Watched Disclosure (Demi Moore and Michael Douglas) with more
Mmmmmm , B e e r . glug, glug, glug, glug wooohooo ! Yes, Yes YES!
and went to bed.
Sorry this has been borin. Ill take them out today to make sure Ive got summat to write about.
Oh and me cold? Seems to be gettin better, though Im still a bit chesty and me noses blocked a bit and Im a bit sinusey.
But I dont like to complain.
FAMILY SUMMARY
Stoppin home D6.5 V4 G9 J8
Homer Bottle Opener D8 V10 G10 J20
Chinese take away D7 V8 G8 J10
Julies Bit at the end
I woke up during the night at 02:00, 02:10, 03:45, 04:30, 06:00, 08:00 and finally decided to get up at 11:00
I was very tired and full of cold and had a bad head so I was really relieved when Gaz told me we were spending the day in the villa. Mam and dad were out at the pub so I decided to sit in front of the telly and stuff my face with crisps and Oreos.
Mam and dad got back and showed me the new bottle opener, which I loved. For the rest of the holiday dad would shout who wants to get me a beer and gaz and me had race to the kitchen to try and grab the bottle opener. I was starting to feel better and getting and bit bored so gaz and me went in the pool.
As dad says I watch loads of American programmes such as Friends, Buffy the Vampire slayer, Fresh Prince of Bel Air ect, and have noticed that every time someone orders a take away it nearly always comes in little white boxes. Since 99 I have wanted a Chinese to see if it came in the white boxes.
Well we ordered a Chinese and realized that whenever some one got white boxes on TV they always had noodles, so I ordered chicken chow mein just incase.
Mam started to panic about how much you are supposed to give the delivery guy.
When it came I was over the moon to get it in a little box. I ran for my camera and began taking pictures. I was even more amazed by the fact you got fortune cookies.
The food was delicious. I had one more race with gaz to see who was going to open dads beer before we all went to bed
What a great end to a great day!
Well thisll be a short report, coz we did nowt.
