Portugal Dec 2010 - Day Three

This bed is not nice. I was tossing and turning all night, now I ache all over. I've decided not to go out today. It's raining again and I'll just be bored again so what's the point.

So i'm hungry now, the nearest supermarket is a good 20 minute walk away... Lidl. Woo!

Why does Fox Life show the same 3 episodes on repeat? I'm bored of the same episode of Ugly Betty, Accidentally on purpose and How I met your mother. Sighhhh.

The swimming pool hasn't been used since we got here, our room is directly over it and I haven't seen a single person using it.

There's a big football pitch just outside the hotel, there's a youth side that train on it every night, i've watched them sometimes and they're not bad. 12 year old Portuguese kids turning on the style.

I thought it was meant to be cheaper over here? Everything seems more expensive. It cost £7 for the equivalent of a Big Mac meal from Burger Ranch. I'll be bringing all my money home, hey, I might buy an iPad.

I see Man City have gone top of the league after a 4-0 win against Aston Villa. Good lads. Lets hope they can keep up the good work and achieve something this season!

Having an Indian tonight, no TV here though so I can't see the Man Utd game. I always like a nice Dupiaza so it should be a nice meal.

My mum keeps moaning about there not being any free wi-fi anywhere. It's funny watching her with her crap HTC trying to connect to networks that require authentification or that don't have an active internet connection. She doesn't seem to understand that you can have a network without the internet. It's quite embarassing actually.

I'm quite looking forward to going back to work, I may moan about the early mornings and how tired I am at the end of the day, but I love it. I love Landau, it's just a great place to be a part of. I have a new office and we have a new guy starting, it'll be good... If I get a new chair that is!

So it's the last day tomorrow, another retail park apparently... We'll see. My flight back is early Thursday morning... Not a moment too soon. Should be back at Birmingham airport at around midday, i'll upload Day Four's blog then.
