Hiya again all....

This afternoon i am sitting at home on my lappy working because i forgot to get things done at the office and thought that i would update you all on whats been happening...

We have had a local builder in do some work in the Garden.... clearing out and putting a new base down for a new Shed... well Tina Calls it a Shed... i think its going to be the size of a small bungalow :)

On Sunday we fly to Malta to finally sign over our old apartment to the new owner and grab some rays..

I have been going to Birzebuggia in the south of Malta since 1978 (Yep 30 years) and LOVE IT... The People, the Country and the climate... everything you could ever want... I have met some Fantastic people and still remain freinds with them to this day and hopefully continue to remain freinds in the future.

We purchased our first property there 3 years ago and haven't looked back since.....

We also love travelling and have been to so many great countries since we married 12 years ago including Sri Lanka, Belgium, Portugal, USA, Maldives, Hong Kong, Singapore... the list goes on....

Why, some people have asked is your blog named "We are in paradise", the reason behind this is simple, in my life now i have everything i have ever wanted, i have a beautiful and wonderful wife, i have contentment in my life and how i live my life, i have 2 fantastic children whom i love very much and grandchildren who are absolute treasures.... but i have something missing.... I want to be somewhere else... this blog is started now because we are making plans to complete our life and the way we live our life.... I have for the Last 5 years trained in the Art of Scuba Diving and have gained the dizzy Heights of Master Scuba Diver Trainer (Instructor who can teach lots of things) this is going to be our new llife... we will be based in Malta and will travel to whereever the jobs take us, Already i have had offers of work from Bali and Maldives... so you see... My, or should i say our life is very nearly completion, we are getting to the top of the Mountain or to the light at the end of the tunnel....


We are in Paradise.... well nearly :) !!!!!!!

oh by the way some more of the Paradise Photo's ;)

Then back out there on 27th September to hopefully get everything done....Painting, Furniture etc.... would be nice just to have a holiday.

What with Bank Managers, Solicitors, Medicals....yeh i know.... a break would be nice... Role on April 2009.

Anyway back to us, work, work and more work... this weekend we have the Isle of Sheppey Round table Donkey derby which means loads more work but also means we have monday off ... wahey....
