May 06 - I say Ayia you say Napa...

Well in the last week or so (drink has started to confuse which day I’m on) I’ve managed to get through quite a lot!

Been settling into the resort and creating bonds and friendships with the guys in the team. There’s a Scottish dude here called Colin who was doing summersault when he found out another Scottish rep was here - as he’s the only one on the East Coast, and we get on really well! We got proper bladded Scottish style last week - found somewhere that sells jumbo cocktails for a tenner and it had 3 quarters of a litre of vodka in it!!!! We shared one, and it took about 1 minute to drink it all through a long straw. Whoa! Was absolutely melted after that!

Been doing shadowing to get to grips with the job, and that meant a lovely trip to Larnaka airport where it started raining!

Went on my first bar crawl too last week, which got incredibly hazy. I remember flashes of it, but I also remember the amount of alcohol I drank! Was in this bar owned by Gary Linekars brother, and it was the best place I’ve ever been in! Feed the pigeons! :P

Went to Europes biggest waterpark on Saturday in Napa, and had a great day! Far too many scantilly clad females going around though. I had a knackering day and came home all tanned! Had dinner afterwards with a few of the team and played around on the beach floating pier when we really shouldnt have been! Was like the start of Dawsons Creek! :-)

Started working with kids properly now - in my very fetching yellow uniform! At least its a lot better than the pink uniform i was wearing last year. Working with kids is so much fun, and because I’m a big kid myself - i always build good rapport!

Today I have a half day, and I spent the majority of it dealing with a leaky pipe that has dripped between my ceiling in my flat and the person above me - so my bedroom and the rest of the house is proper soaked, and i spent the day waiting for a plumber while my flatmate disappeared somewhere! Nice, thanks!

I think I’m going out for dinner tonight. Been trying to organise a nice little jolly for my birthday on Monday, so being in good company should make me feel a lot better. Right now I’m miserable because I’m a bit lonely and missing a few people close to me from at home!

Will update whn something actually interesting happens for me to write about!

Hiya Kristophe!

Great to hear you are having a ball and the alcohol has been flowing in similar volumes to the mouth of the mighty Amazon!

Keep up the good work and enjoy
