I am

A bit of a last minute thing.

Staying with a web designer friend who lives in Pollensa town for a week, travelling on my own which will feel very strange

I will be working online some of the time as I need to finish a project and I need a break and with a bit of peace and quiet I will get things finished with all that fresh air and clear thinking. ( that's my excuse anyway )

With the modern technology of the internet I will be logged in to my work PC and network all the way from Pollensa.

I need to find a computer monitor to use for a week which is the next task as my laptop screen is too small...

The Monarch flight was 'Free', I sold some old stuff on ebay and paid for the flight with the paypal so it feels 'free'

Must book a hire car today.

I forgot to say when in April, Thursday the 3rd so not long now

Hire car booked with full insurance paid as I will need to negotiate the narrow maze of pollensa back streets a few times.

Computer monitor problem solved by ordering from amazon.es for delivery to Pollensa using chrome browser for real time translation.
ordered one of these, only 2.95 euro delivery charge
LG 24EA53VQ-P - Monitor LED de 24" Full HD (16:9, HDMI, D-sub, DVI-D, Salida de auriculares), Negro: LG: Amazon.es: Informática

My bank blocked the amazon.es transaction the first attempt at ordering but now looks OK as I see it on my online banking

I just hope it arrives as scheduled while I am still there

Keyboard, mouse and walking boots packed in suitcase. With a few clothes for me and loads of stuff I am taking to an expat friend that misses English stuff,
26 kilo fully stuffed suitcase

So hopefully I am all set up for a weeks working / walking miles and taking a few photos holiday.

Getting a big monitor home might be interesting..

We are here for most of the month - our second time this year already. Had a great fortnight in February.

Sparkey, I know you have a reputation to uphold etc by doing all this research around the bars and restaurants and bars again but I feel you are neglecting your duties a wee bit. Here I am poised, as I have been for several days now waiting for the "Who is out in May" title to appear, all to no avail. How about it Sparkey, have a night in and do the biz so I can register how many sleeps until we are out in May, the wife is getting fretful, its not official we are going on holiday until it appears on the forum.
