Easter Sunnyday



Well, not quite what was promised as the blue skies have not been cooperating when it was time for walkies, but here's Jess in front of Bell Peak (Puig Campana), better known as Benidorm mountain. Hey, I know Benidorm is a cliche to most people but I've been surprised by its pleasant climate and pretty scenery. The temperature on Good Friday was very pleasant at 10pm as we watched the Catholic processions through the old town...Jan and I watched as the older girls stayed at home and baby-sat. It's nice to be able to get out on our own together sometimes.

Easter has been a nice welcome break. Unfortunately, like the rest of the family most of us are down to our last Cream Egg (actually I'm all out), but hey, we're Merrow-Smiths....and anyway, I caught a whiff of a news report that said cocoa products are good for keeping the cancers at bay! Not so sure the heart poeple would endorse that approach but I back it all the way. Jess is going for a run in the morning she tells me. Not me though. Cricket yesterday gave me serious cramp and off I went hobbling round the living room in the dead of night stuffing myself with sea salt and bananas! It works mind you. Took a really good diving catch to make up for my slogger for two runs batting debacle. Never mind, at least there's always next week assuming it doesn't rain. Oh no, that's England, I forgot.

Will try to Skype anyone who is listening tomorrow morning. TTFN.
