For those reading this, thank you firstly. I hope there’s a modicum of interest/enjoyment spending the time reading my daily diatribe! For those back again…are you masochists!
We’re off to Ovaçik, thanks to good friends allowing us to use their apartment again. For Jane & I who do want to see new places, we’ve also found that once we find somewhere that we relax, we love to go back.
This year will be unique.
For those that don’t know, last Thursday I worked my last day at Airangel – a company I co-founded over 18 years ago, and that brought to an end 12,761 days without seeing a P45. I’ve had 35 years of continuous service for one reason or another.
It’s been a very strange experience for me with a constantly shifting emotional rollercoaster. It’s been my “life”. It’s affected so many aspects of my life over such a long time.
But now it’s time to take a deep breath, “decompress” and work out what to do next! Hence the uniqueness.
But first a holiday!
Due to Lurchio being at the end of a tough first year of A Levels (“very capable but must put more effort in”) we’re here a week or so later than we were last year.
And I suspect that means there’s going to be a recurring theme, with temperatures forecast of around 45°C at the weekend!
As usual, there will be an almost daily ramble about whatever comes to mind, as we explore this part of the world in a bit more detail this year. We have plans to visit new places, but are also looking forward to going back to places (for that, read restaurants) that we enjoyed the last time we were over the hill from Fethiye.
I say “over the hill”, because Charlie & I, along with a big group of Manchester City fans were here a few weeks ago.
I’ll not bore you with that adventure, (and boy was it an adventure!) but may write a little blog if there’s a slow news day here in Ovaçik!
Catch you shortly after we set off and then experience our first day back in one of our happy places!
Cheers
Chris
