Well my rents still live there and its half term so It works out better if we go see them than if they come here.
I know... I did it (rememeber!!) I was trying to throw a positive slant on it for you, that it's not 'too' long till you get to paradise and those fab beaches again, catch up with friends and swop stories on how life etc.

Ahh sorry didn't pick up on that.

But yea, it's the only thing keeping me going really. I seriously can't wait. And people have been facebooking me saying they genuinely miss me which is really nice to know and that you are wanted somewhere

And don't forget the food Pyra After eating for a month and a half from somewhere people call the 'trough', I am dying for some real yummy food.

Its all types of food really because so many people come from abroad (25% of the population are immigrants). But 'local' food is like Malaysian/Chinese. But everywhere is pretty much really nice as food and health laws are so strict.

I'm still sick (with sheer jealousy) at the pics you had of the Maldives.

It's the one place I want to visit, a few of the Islands. Absolutely breathtaking - reminds of me some of the Thai Islands.

They are truly amazing. I have been twice and the first time we went it was the april after the tsunami and one of the hotels islands had been destroyed (resort was 2 adjoining islands) and so we got moved onto the more 'secluded' 'authentic' island. No internet, no pool, no tv's and only limited electricity. Was pure bliss having 2 weeks totally secluded on a desert island. I would definitely advise saving up and if you go do not miss out on snorkelling or scuba diving. The reefs are AMAZING.

Cant do scuba am afraid due too health reasons. Snorkelling I'm a dab hand at. Used to be a fab coral reef in Jeddah - great fun. Damn you Charlie, I want to be 13 again and be back there with it all ahead of me again....... you don't know what you've got till it's not there anymore and all that.

Now surely you will hide your wee 'unaccompanied passenger' vest - you need to get that to hell ......
