Thursday 7th we decided pretty late on that we wanted a change of scenery, so frequented the Irish Village......
The last time we went to the irish village was when Steve was over and there was some charity golf bash on.......and Frank Carson was a guest on stage.....he was sooo funny and definately not PC!!!!
This visit was somewhat low key! a few drinks, and a few more.....just to be sociable we had more ..........then we remember it rained........got in a taxi....at some point KFC was involved...then back to the flat....sufficed to say, we couldnt get to the airport in the morning to pick up our next guests...an old collegue...JC and his wife, FC stopped over for 24hrs on the way to NZ!
They arrived on the door step by taxi and we promptly whacked the kettle on!!! decided based on fatigue that we would do some easy sightseeing a meal and a Burj al Arab drive by in the evening. although it was a whistle stop tour, we think they enjoyed it. It was a great opportunity to say goodbye and goodluck as we missed the leaving do!
Saturday morning was an EARLY one... dropped J and F at the airport and had planned to wait the half an hour when CJDs mate was due to land.....but things never work out the way you plan them, and the flight was delayed.....so went back to the flat!
Eventually she arrived and CJD went back to the airport......so....our third guest arrived...
Saturday was quite chilled......we went back to the antiques market for more tat.....WE JUST CANT RESIST!!! going to need to do some creative packing going home!
The afternoon was spent catching what little sun we could by the pool. things are getting desperate now. the tan is fading fast! CJD and guest frequented a nice little italian style mall called Mercato for some retail therapy.
