Hi.

We have decided to stay at Camp Markadia for a full 30 days because after 15 days you get 50% off your bill making the last 2 weeks in the month for free!, including electricity. You can take the man out of Yorkshire but you cant take Yorkshire out of the man!!!!....
The fishing is not too shabby just like a good summers day fishing on the caravan pond. I am still getting smashed off on the take even though I have changed back to nylon main line instead of braid, the bloody fish must be on steroid's. The biggest I have had so far are two at 8lbs, one of the fish I have caught twice as it has a mouth like a poorly pussy, or if you like Mick Jagger, "all puffed up".
The weather is so changeable and just does not no what to do with itself, today it is sunny but very windy, we have had to put down the sky dish as it is not safe to have it elevated as it it is getting the full blast where we are.
We have just moved real estate on the site to a very attractive location higher up on the hill, so we overlook the full lake, and the added advantage is we gain another 2 channels on the receiver as we can get all the news channels, but now we can get 2 movie channels as well.
We have never had as much news information (all bad), we have come away to get away from all the crap in the UK. Never mind when we get back up to Mequenenza in Spain we get all the normal Chanel's back.

Norm if you are reading this and you still can not get the pictures, they are in JPEG format, make sure your computer is set up to read this format.

We had to take our Evie to the vets on Wednesday in Beja as she picked up a bad ear infection, the vet gave her a good mot even clipped her nails and it only came to 38 euros including any pills and ear drops, anyway she seems fine now. Sandra has to put drops in every morning for the next 10 days, and clean her ear out. Evie does not seem to mind at all now I even think she is enjoying the attention.
