We started the day by waking up a bit later than we expected, so we only just made the all-inclusive breakfast.

Then we basically laid around the pool for the rest of the day. With Mexican tortillas for lunch in between.

After we had a bit more sun, and had a shower, we went back to the restaurant for dinner. Once we’d filled ourselves with ice cream, we explored a tiny bit of the local beach at night. Which wasn’t particularly interesting, as you couldn’t see anything.

We walked back to the room, and it was pretty close to bed time. So we watched a far few episodes of the Big Bang Theory and went to sleep.

After last night, we were all ready for our trip to Cyprus today.

We woke up, had a coffee/tea, said goodbye to the cat, and headed to Stanstead airport. The airport was rather busy, but it all seemed to flow pretty well, so we didn’t notice any real delays.

However, once we boarded the plane, we were hit with an estimated 50 minute delay from air traffic control. This was just after the plane was ready to leave.

It turned out pretty well though. As all the kids took turns to visit the pilots in the cockpit, and after they had their turn, my girlfriend wanted to see what it was like. So we had a turn.

Fortunately for us, as we went in, the pilots were notified we needed to move around the airport so we could be ready for any early slot. So we sat down in the cockpit! They shut the cabin door, and we got our own tour of the cockpit from the pilot, where I asked them quite a lot about the iPad they were using. I don’t want to write everything I wrote on Twitter here, so if you want to check out what it was like, go to my Twitter.

Once arrived in Larnaca airport, we found our transfer company, and headed to the hotel. And that is pretty much where the day ended. As we had a drink from the bar when we arrived, unpacked in the room, and went to sleep.

Today was meant to be one full of packing and tidying the house. Instead it was a very short lived day. Mainly due to the fact that myself and my girlfriend woke at around 1 pm!

After that we somehow wasted a few hours, then we went to town for a few last minute items needed for our holiday.

Once we were back it was around 7:30 pm. So after eating dinner, there was not much time left for anything really.

Today was my last work day before I go on holiday for a week!

It wasn’t the busiest day, as I couldn’t pick up any substantial bits of work before leaving. However, there were updates to two of our apps that I finalised, and should be released while I’m away! So that was a good way to end the week.

After work, I headed back into London for dinner with some friends. We went to a vegan pizza restaurant called Purezza, which still beats any non-vegan pizza I’ve ever eaten.

As usual, the trains had problems this morning, which meant I got into work late. Annoyingly, that has become a regular occurrence lately.

After work today it was a bit better, as it was someones last day. So we went to the pub for leaving drinks, and I ended up getting home at about 10 pm.

Luckily when I got back, my girlfriend had cooked dinner! Afterwards we watched some Big Bang Theory, but I didn’t make it that far as I fell asleep on the sofa.

It’s going to be a short entry today. Plainly because I didn’t get up to anything spectacular.

I had an average day at work, followed by a very nice dinner from my girlfriend. And afterwards we watched Big Bang theory until we were tired enough to go to bed.

A true rockstar lifestyle.

I had a pretty average day at work today, so unfortunately nothing to ramble about.

During the day something interesting did happen though, and it was a review for my app Text Case! It was covered at Beautiful Pixels, and I’m very thankful of the review!

After work my girlfriend made dinner while I was doing the washing up. And after she left for work, I’ve mainly just been watching YouTube videos with my cat! It also coincides with me laying in bed, and realising at 10 pm that I’m actually ready to go to sleep.

So I’m publishing this, and it’s time for an early night.

Back to work today, after a very quick weekend. And it didn’t start particularly well. First of all, the trains had issues, so I got to work late. But I also forgot my badge for the building, and also my office floor (I keep them together). Turns out when I unpacked my bag for something on Friday, and repacked it yesterday, I left that on the kitchen table. Needless to say, it’s ready in my bag for tomorrow.

After I got home, I was greeted with pie and mash for dinner, that my girlfriend had made before going on a night shift. It was very nice!

In the evening, I’ve been relaxing with some podcasts, Youtube, and some World of Warcraft. But also doing a but more laundry that I should have got done over the weekend.

One video that I have to mention, is one that appeared on my YouTube Recommend section about mental health. It’s about an hour long discussion, and the reason it instantly appealed to me were the people that were in it. It features HRH the Duke of Cambridge, Gareth Southgate, Peter Crouch, Thierry Henry, Danny Rose and Jermaine Jenas. And it was a really fascinating video. I’d definitely recommend watching.

After the party last night, we all slept in our tents and sleeping bags inside a hall. After everyone had finally awoke, we spent a few hours having coffee/tea and some hot breakfast.

After that was all finished, we spent quite a few hours tidying everything from the party. There was a lot of go through, and myself and my girlfriend only ended up leaving at about 6 pm. There was still a tiny bit of work left to do, but my girlfriend was working a night shift tonight, so we had to get back and have dinner before she left.

After she went to work, I was left on my own. So I did some boring things like water my plants, wash the dishes, and do some laundry.

I started to watch a film on Netflix called “I AM MOTHER”, but I’ve barely managed an hour so far. I’m strangely just too tired. Even though I didn’t really do anything today.
