jlo Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 First big test coming up. I am off to Lanzarote this week with the family and won't have access to the forum for a whole week. I think that this will be the longest that I have been away from you guys and it's going to be tough! Actually - I will hopefully be in a bit of sunshine and warmth so maybe it won't be quite that tough! Missing you already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackiepoppies Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Have a lovely time and in answer to your question, if you're anything like me over the last couple of weeks, yes, you will get withdrawal symptoms. You will soon get over that though when you see the amount of little red stars you come home to....that is daunting....unless you can speed read or can bear to skip a lot....I can't Jackiex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I'm sure there are cyber cafes in Lanzarote. Dont' they have wireless in the hotel??? Last place I went without wireless was Center Parcs. Every hotel I've been in since has had it, mind you they've all been in America.

Cinnamon Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I actually find it really easy to switch off from forum life when I go away & I always have to almost make myself go back online when I come home again,as it really means that life is back to normal.

feemcg Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 What day are you going? I'm going to Lanzarote on Thursday morning......just in from work and off to start packing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Just signing off now - thanks for all your good wishes. I took the girls to their holiday home today and am now feeling very sad without them Feemcg - we are going Thursday morning too but are staying up at Gatwick tomorrow night to try and minimise the stress! We are staying at Costa Teguise but I know nothing about the island so don't know quite where that is in relation to anything else. Hope you have a good time too. See y'all later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardene5 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi See how many hen farms you can find whilst on holiday to keep your hen power up. You could get photos of you and those foreign hens whilst you are over there on holiday. Have fun best regards Ian & Valerie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Girls are back in the garden and seem happy to be home. No chickens at all on Lanzarote that I could find Nice bit of sun though (if a bit windy! We tried to play golf last Sunday and the ball kept being blown off the tee peg! The chillerns had their first go at windsurfing and did a lot better than I would have done! I just about coped with the cocktails! i did try and bring a bit of sun back. It was really almost warm in the garden this morning. Oh well - back to the washing. Good job it's my hobby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
