16th and 17th June update


Sunday 17 June.
 Yesterday we went to the gym for an hour and made a ‘commitment’to going everyday. However we gave that one up this morning when we saw that the sea was like a lake and just so inviting, so we chose to go swimming early.  Supplies are a bit low and the campsite supermarket, which is so expensive, is the only one about. Norman and Barbara, the English couple with the caravan, recommended the nearby town of Santa Teresa for shopping and sightseeing. However we’re too settled in now, and will just use up the last of the beans etc and then head for that town when we leave to stock up. Will try and add photies of beach and site.

Saturday 16th June.
Returning to the subject of washing lines…we were entertained the other day watching the Canvas Holidays woman trying to put a washing line up. It ended up with a big u shaped dip in the middle and she tried to rectify this by fastening it to the tree even higher than the 6ft she could reach. The washing was nearly touching the floor. I raised this matter with her in the bar. She’s a nice friendly woman in her early 60’s and she admitted to me that she’s never ever put a washing line up in her life. Her and her husband have it made they are the sole reps for Canvas on the site and look after 16 units.  She asked would I be interested in working for Canvas who are looking for staff! I think I’d be a tremendous asset to Canvas as I can not only put up washing lines but tents as well!!
The good weather continues, England are doing well will there be a storm coming soon?
