Off Topic Holidays

Just confirming brb's assessment of him being middle class

 

The way he has trimmed those Olive trees is very snobbish too

 

Olive trees is someone of middle class trying to be upper class

 

I would imagine that Fosse has installed one of those doorbells that chimes like a church bell too

 

Not forgetting the, Friends welcome, relatives by appointment front door mat, hilarious those are

 

... or that hard work combined with a modicum of intelligence and the wiilingness to move for work can markedly improve your lot in life ... left Leicester in 1986 to take a job in High Wycombe ... a profession I'm still working in today, albeit swapping Buckinghamshire for Hertfordshire...

 

Current view.

 

View from the restaurant last night, Mrs luv not happy I made her walk up the hills to get there lol.

 

Been a very different holiday I'm usually one to go find historical crap and walk about exploring Mrs luv chills but I've joined her and done a week sat by the pool or by the sea (10 second walk from the pool). It's like I'm in a coma.

 

I tried that. I don't like a holiday that is super jam packed waking up early and doing **** all day long but at the same time i tried sitting around doing **** all and "reading" and basking in the sun and i get bored as ****, especially if i'm not feeling tired. Got to go and explore a bit really

 

Sounds like my idea of hell.

 

I would normally agree but it's been great. I've kept active with an evening walk to a restaurant and walking about and swimming in the sea and pool, on my second book.

 

Yeah I'm normally the same.

 

The adults only thing helps as it's chilled at the pool.

 

Now it makes sense, I wondered why it looked so peaceful.

 

Yeah I'll send a pic now of the pool.

 

3 people in there. About 10 people around on sunbeds, loads of beds left The pool people bring you a free beer or water now and then and move your umbrella for you to keep you in the shade.

I'm like it's okay I can do that, I find it difficult to let people wait on me like this but it is kinda nice.

 

I don't like people generally doing things for me, I'm a very independent ****er, but if they bring free beer I'm all for that. I think if I ran a bar, it's something I'd want my employees to do, obviously customers would have to pay though lol. I'm sure a lot of pubs could sell more beer if they were more proactive. I'm old school, if I've got an empty glass it needs filling. I know last Gills game I went in the micro pub, because I prefer them and the woman behind the bar came to you, didn't have to move at all
