MAURITANIA, MADEIRA AND THE SAVAGE ISLANDS...

CANARY ISLANDS, MOROCCO, WESTERN SAHARA, SPAIN...













...and maybe/probably even Mauritania, Madeira, the Savage Islands, Cape Verde and the Azores!

That's why you're seeing this post instead of our usual offering - 'cause we're getting ready to head off on our holliers!















The hubby and three of my brothers are building (another!) extension on one of our daughters houses and the grandchildren are getting to the age now where they don't call in as often as we'd like to see them (and as often as they used to!) and, as we have the use of a villa in the Canary Islands until around mid-April and, thanks to a good friend of ours in the airline business, near-enough open-ended return flights, meself and the Girl Gang are off to pool-side atein' and drinkin' in the sunshine!

It's the same villa that we stayed in last year, mostly availed of then as our base, as we intend to do now - a wardrobe with bedrooms and a kitchen - and, like our last stay in that beautiful house, we're not gonna be in it every day or night, as we travel extensively to and from the near-by(ish!) sun-soaked and beach-trapped islands.

I'll still be posting on 'X' and 'Facebook', although it will be mostly holiday pics, just to annoy yis!

We should be back on the '1169' blog sometime between mid-April 2026 and the end of that month ; either that or we could be still in custody on any one of the sun-soaked islands that we'll be attacking over the next few weeks!



Thanks for the visit, and for reading - appreciated - and I'm gonna miss ye all.

...but me and the Girl Gang have each other for company so I reckon I'll get over it..!

Sharon and the team.
