I watched the shuttle launch on the bbc news site and their pics weren't THAT much better - and I bet their equipment cost just a little more. At least they can jog your memory each time you look at them, Spam.

OUr small 2 man spa came yesterday.....tried it out this morning and decided that is what mornings are for.

 

Unfortunately our neighbours...fellow owner....came over and said the motor had kept them awake all night....they only slept after taking sleeping tablets.

They say they can hear it in the living room

 

The spa is against our bedroom wall....and as you know I slept well last night.

 

Our problem is it only warms with the motor on...no heater.

 

We have guests in before Christmas through to March more nor less no gaps. They are here till April.

 

Tonight we going to turn the motor off to see how low the temperature drops....what a pain!!

well considering we are not joined....detached properties and they have a bathroom before their bedroom and then their living room we can't see what they are talking about...but we can't call them liars either.

 

Stephen says the septic tank was pumped out yesterday and it's next to their property so Stephen wondered if it was the noise from the empty pump...

 

Our management company say they haven't heard a quieter spa...

 

So we are turning it off tonight and for another night then turning it back on to see what they say.

We are hoping it will then be alright.

 

c**p isn't it

 

I don't want to fall out with them.

 

On a good note I have finally...after 5 years of being in Florida...phoned my cousin and we are meeting next Wednesday...:D

Well, both those statements are total surprises. With regard to your cousin - it is always better o deal with these things quickly, so I'm glad you've arranged an early meet up.

It was chilly this morning....very warm now...just over 70F

 

I've been taking photos to update the web pages.

 

Stephen is power washing the drive.

 

I'm supposed to be sorting the internet and giving it a password again!

 

If I don't return.......I messed up!

We did have a quick swim in the pool and a soak in the spa.

 

Then we spent time after tea sorting the TV control.

 

We bought a harmony TV control and programed it to do everything....it asks you what you want to watch or listen to and shows you what to press....very simple :rolleyes:

 

....as you can guess it's been messed up and we've had to re-programme that too

 

I sometimes wish guests would just pay us the money and stay at home :(

Sounds more like a lot of hard work than a holiday.

we are going away for 2 nights nex week....and we had planned to go to Disney at least 1 day...not sure when.

 

Stephen is still working with electrics aking the spa wiring safe and putting it on a timr so the next door neighbours don't complain.

 

We then need to sort out the hedge as the gardener said the villa behind's manangement has asked for them to be cut down :o

 

Don't they like privacy for the guests......ANYWAY THEY'RE OURS!!!!

It wouldn't have been so bad if it had been the owners....some management companies think they own the houses!!

 

Anyway the gardener wont as he knows they belong to us but has just asked us to go round the oter side and tidy them up.

 

They are lovely flowering bushes and not even casting a shadow on the pool....I really can't understand some people.

 

I know our guests would rather be private when in the pool or sunbathing.

 

You mean people don't like all the world and his neighbour watching them take a swim or whatever.

Don't! You're making me think about lazy days in Florida and it's freezing here - dry though, for once.

 

The actual Disneyland was one of my least favourite theme parks. It just seemed so commercial and crowded. Unless you get one of those fast pass tickets, you spend most of the day queueing for the more popular rides.
