Casares Holiday | Day Eleven

Spud definitely wants to go home, Nelson’s not happy about staying on his own, a couple of the girls have offered half-heartedly to stay too to keep him company (but not his sister!).  We are talking to the airline now, to see what our options are.
After a bit of coaching/straight talking from Judith, I’ve discounted [...]

Casares Holiday | Day Ten

So the ladies arrived this morning – Raquel and her sister – to do a mid-holiday clean for us.  Roger had emailed the time over, but it had gone into my Spam Folder for no discernable reason, so we were caught on the hop a bit trying to get the kids up and dressed so [...]

Casares Holiday | Day Nine

We attempted to get the kids up early, as it was Chloe’s birthday and we wanted to go to the beach at Puerto Banus.
As usual it was a bit of an adventure, as I wasn’t 100% sure how to get there, but I remember managing it before so how hard can it be?  Roger [...]

Casares Holiday – Day Eight

Bit cloudy today after a sunny start and the maid service isn’t coming till Wednesday so we let the kids lie in again while we got on with some work – largely editing, tagging and uploading photos to http://www.flickr.com/photos/stoupaproperty and http://www.flickr.com/photos/casaresspain
We are going with Flickr being the best place to upload photos to, as [...]

Casares Holiday | Day Seven

The kids woke up seriously late today – we had to winkle them out of their beds at 2pm local time!  Then it was a debate about “pool or beach” and after a bit of to’ing and fro’ing the beach won, and as it was by then about 3pm, we tried San Louis but it [...]

Holiday In Casares – Day Six

Sarah and I are on a roll now, working together at the dining room table, the lovely view helps!  I’m starting to forget what day it is, and have given up wearing my watch entirely.  Today is…..Saturday, I think!
Working till lunchtime, that is, when the brats wake up, turn on Big Brother and generally kill [...]

Holiday In Casares | Day Four

In spite of spending hundreds of great european euros at the Estapona Carrefour just two days ago, we are out of juice, kit kats and bread, they don’t like the yoghurts, and we need more tomotoes and avocados.  Oh, and rose wine.
So we decide to combine a trip to Carrefour with a trip to Estapona [...]

Holiday In Casares | Day Two

Nicola from The Money Gym says: Roger came over and briefed us about changes to Casares, showed us how to work the air con (each control works any room’s unit, and you can set them individually) and had a coffee with us.
We now have a list of restaurants to try, mentioning Roger’s name, bless him, [...]

Holiday In Casares | Day One

Nicola from The Money Gym says: So we manage to get to the airport on time, thanks to some help from Steve, with last minute printing off of instructions for us, only to find that our plane has an entire football team of Spanish boys, who’ve been over to the Arsenal Ecademy.  When they spot [...]
