Well the amazing thing is that Chelsea actually beat one of the lowest team in the Premier league Leeds 1-0 at Stamford bridge and its the first game they have won for about three months it seems, its a start but still very poor and how the the hell they hope to stand up to Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, god only knows, we shall see. I am hoping to watch this game at home provisioning the flight is on time and not delayed due to the promised adverse weather conditions which are promised over the next few days.
Prior to leaving West Byfleet we turned down the central heating and the hot water to off,as there is no reason to waste money on gas and electric, so also we had tuned off lots of plugs . However today is switch on day as the house temp is around 11C which is a bit nippy and underfloor central heating takes longer to warm up compared to conventional radiators and so lets hope the house is nice and warm when we return Tuesday evening. The weather here in Puerto del carmen is really nice and perhaps next time, we shall come a little later in the year as the first week was no great, although a lot warmer than Uk it wa to cold for sitting in a wet swim suit.

So today we watched the Bahrain F1 GP and what a good race it was and we were delighted with the success of Alonso and the Aston Martin team which shocked both Red Bull and particularly Mercedes who were well off the pace ( one second per lap)so back to the drawing board it seems and Toto was not a happy teddy by all accounts. Williams also did well but it was a disaster for McLaren but neither car were in contention.After the race we switched over to watch the Liverpool vs Manchester United game which at half time was 1-0 , I did not plan to watch the game as thought being on the balcony of the room would be nice and then I checked the score again and saw it was 3-0, this I have got to see and who would have thought that Man U would collapse so spectacularly and they lost the game at 7-0. The Man U players lost all control of themselves and off the game and Liverpool deserved to win..

We had thought of going to the Steak House which we visited earlier in our stay and then discovered it was closed on Sundays and so Plan B was introduced that we would test our the buffet in the Hotel providing there was sufficient food that my body would accept and I was able to get a reasonable meal whilst Jennifer could enjoy most of it. We returned to the room about 9pm and watched some stuff on You Tube, amazing what you can see on here.
As and aside I have been tracking the two B747-8 Cargo Aircraft which my ex Company has long term charter contracts from Atlas Air who will take care of the aircraft and provide the crew whilst KN will control the loading and routing , quite interesting really to see where they are going and just wish I could take a ride…Ah well time for bed
