Hello everybody,

Yes, I know, a long long time ago. But still alive and kicking.

I didn't had much to write about, plus on top of that not real inspiration to write, so I left it for a long time. In this meantime I have been one week to Crete, which was nice. Catching up with old friends, wonderful sunshine, nice appartment with swimmingpool AND BBQ, this time I could just enjoy it, without being involved in the organization

Then back in Holland again, where I keep myself busy with doing a lot of typingwork through Internet. This time no dictionaires (I couldn't do that anymore) but somewhat interesting stories, an autobiography of a grandpa for his grandchildren, diaries of a great English writer: Evelyn Waugh. Don't worry, I never heard of him before.

Last weekend I have been to Winterberg, Germany. I was invited there for a second job-interview. It is a hughe hotel in Winterberg, owned by Dutch people (from Brabant) and they wanted me (maybe, but not I found out later) for 3 months to run the ski-school. After a first interview in Holland they invited me to come over for Friday and Saturday. It was a real fantastic hotel, but for me it was too big. The salary was very good, so I thought, if they want me I will go, but when the owner called me on Sunday that they employed a younger (??) person, I was not sad at all. More happy actually, so I did not have to go - only for the money. That is not a good reason I know, but for 3 months I could have done it.

This week I got a telephone call from Vacansoleil and they told me that this season they planned me for the campsite Punta Spin, Grado, Italy. First they offered me a campsite in Lloret de Mar, Spain, but I said I preferred to go back to Italy again, so they found me this campsite. I am looking forward to go there, bought already some guides to find out what to do in and around the area. The campsite is right on the beach, with a beach bar, so that will be different then last season, being 'stuck' on a mountainhill.

Tomorrow morning I will fly to England, Birmingham. Finally I am going to visit my very dear friends Pete and Tina. They used to come to Crete all those years, but since I left Crete I haven't seen them anymore, so it was about time I jump on a plane to go and see them. Very excited about it. Sunday late afternoon I will fly back to cold and grey Holland again, where more typing work is awaiting me.

Still surfing the net for a job for the wintermonths. If anyone has a suggestion: I am open for it. Any kind of work, from December till end of March, half of April.

As soon as I am back from England I will surf the internet for more information about the campsite Punta Spin and will let you know about it, if it is interesting enough.

Would of course be great, fantastic, super, if I will see many of you there this season. A nice beach holiday, close to Triest and Venice, nice weather, etc. etc.

For now I will sign off, a bit more typing to do and then time to pack my little suitecase for the weekend.

Wishing that all of you are happy and healthy and...... looking forward to some news from your side? Keep checking my emails, but inbox stays empty..........

Take care, because I care and......... I'll be back on the net soon!!!

Kisses, Bacci bacci, filakia Rita
