Back From My Holiday



Well time does fly when your having fun, I had a lovely week away in the Dominican Republic very sad to be back.

The hotel was amazing the complex was immaculate and the staff very attentive although the food could of been better at times. The best bit was the beach where I spent most of the week. See picture to your right.

I did quite a lot in a week mainly water sports, which were driving a mini speed boat for the afternoon, scuba diving, parasailing and of course I went on the banana boat. I also had a nice relaxing massage on the beach.

Well it's back to work now and it's very busy with 2012 launch coming up next week, I hope you are all busy planning your cruise holidays for next year and we look forward to hearing from you.

My Girlie Weekend Away

Well I am sad to say I will be 25 years old on Saturday, ever since I was 16 this for some reason this has been my scary age (don't ask me why). So I will be out of the office till Monday morning.

But on a good note I will be celebrating in style with my best friends Marie, Emily, Francesca & Sarah



What a lovely bunch they are. We will be staying in a very nice apartment in Birmingham for the weekend and intend to have a nice meal on the Friday night, shopping and champagne in Selfridges on the Saturday day and then yes you guessed it party party party on the Saturday night.

I am very excited and cannot thank my great friends enough for always being there for me no matter what and making the effort this weekend.
