Hola

So, nearly a week since I got back from holiday, and still no update, so it’s about time that I sat down and wrote a little (at least) about the trip, in my usual self indulgent way!

If anyone reading this has never been to Barcelona, I would have to strongly advise a trip. The city is amazing, the bars and beaches are great and there’s even some scenery worth visiting. The only down side to the holiday is that it involved me spending way too much money. We were staying in the Olympic village which is quite a touristy venue, leading to some pretty hefty prices. Despite which I really enjoyed my week away.

 

And now I’m back, and so is Katy who’s been away in Greece (to the same place I used to work!).

 

So now I’m just getting used to spending a lot less, I’m going to have to have a month of serious saving so I can afford to go camping at then end of august, and get my mum a decent 60th birthday pressie.

 

So here’s to saving money!

 The photos are up in the Gallery, and i've updated the software behind. (you can now get an XML feed of the gallery, not that anyone will be interested.)

Hmm, Ukraine sounds interesting TMITK. Is it safe? Obviously not, if you're a bear.

In a recent EU Study the capital Kiev had a lower crime rate than the British city of Derby. So I'd say it was safe Owen - It's safe
