Unlucky for some……………

I’ve decided that the 13th is a very lucky number for us: not only has my mum returned to her home in Peyia today, after a long trip back to the UK but we’ve also picked up a gorgeous new villa in Coral Bay to rent – and the people who own it are lovely too!

Plus, tomorrow, we “adopt” Jake, a huge Japanese Akita puppy who currently lives in a plant pot in Chloraka and seems very unhappy. I don’t know what Alfie, Molly, Tiff and Charlie will think but we’re doing it! We’ve both been calling to see Jake (our name, not his real name), for a few weeks and I’ve hesitated to take him because of how the other animals will be – but neither of us can settle knowing we’ve got room for him and want to care for him: we’ll just have to give it our best shot! (and pray that the internet write up about Akitas is a little “off”: it says they have little tolerance for other dogs!

Mind you, I checked Mollys breed profile too and it says that her breed of dog doesn’t like children, dogs or cats – and that couldn’t be further off the track! As long as we don’t tell Jake how he is supposed to behave, perhaps we’ll be okay! Fingers crossed! (And watch out for 2 people swimming in the sea at Coral Bay, with 3 miss matched dogs!).

Finally, the other lovely thing today was a comment from Kevin and Sheryl who had their honeymoon in Coral Bay this year and are coming back again in Spring 08 – thank you both SO much for your feedback and trust! We’re looking forward so much to welcoming you back – oh and would you like a big dog as a belated wedding present?………
