"Hello, my names Richard and I'm a foodaholic"
On a more positive note though, meals at 36 On the Quay (Emsworth), Amberley Castle (Amberley) and Antonio's (Fareham) have all proved to be very good and by contrast the "typically English" roast and two veg at "Peter's" today at the Sir Loin of Beef was excellent and topped off the week very nicely.
Tea with Bridget was such a nice change too and all so very English - can we say that these days? We have been providing "PC" lessons for her although for me the mere mention of the word "pc" makes me rant and brings me out in a rash with Val comparing me to Victor Meldrew.

I am still mourning the loss of my dear old VW Golf and as will Val when parting with little Clio... I nearly shed a tear as my car was driven off but managed to restrain myself. However the sale of Val's Ercol table and chairs was a sad moment for her but this was tempered by the knowledge it was going to a good home in the West Country.
With the beds gone on the 26th we will find ourselves sleeping on the floor for a night which will be an experience which I am not sure we will enjoy very much.
The diet starts next week so it's bread and water for me until I have lost at least 2 stone.
Next week is so busy.......
Monday deciding what to carry and what to ship
Tuesday afternoon partial packing and loading
Wednesday final packing and loading
Thursday is completion on the house and then off to Gatwick for an overnight stay (in a bed OFF the floor) with a day in the hotel until we fly off on ...
Friday it's off we go... 22:25 from Gatwick arriving in Ibiza around 02:30
We are staying at the Hotel Lux Isla in Talamanca if you want to spot us in Google Earth.
So this will be our last blog before we depart and I am not sure when our next entry will be as that is dependent upon having the internet or being in an internet cafe.
So, to all our friends and family it's cheerio for now and lots of love to everyone until you hear from us again with an update on life in Ibiza. For those of you with mobile that I know the number of I will be texting our Spanish numbers.
