Is the end in sight? Or should that be the Beginning?

Hola! and Welcome Back!

Well, it's now February 2007, so a belated Happy New Year to one and all.

I've just got some news that things may finally be about to change for my little casa in Spain....... Hmm, now where have I heard that before?

Anyway, news has it that allegedly my house is about to get a meter!!!! Now I am not going to get the bubbly out just yet but it would make a nice belated New Year present if I did. So those of you who visit this blog regularly, please keep your fingers, and everything else, crossed.

Of course, for the last year and a bit since I returned from Spain I have purposely put the idea of living there out of my head and got on with my life here in the UK, or tried. Now that the meter might be finally about to happen, I am thinking about wanting to return but at this stage I am not about to make any rash decisions. My new business is about to launch and spring is only around the corner and London is always a great city when the sun is shining so maybe thats something to think about for 2008. Main thing for this year regarding the house in Spain, is finish off the garden, do the weeding for th 97th time and look at renting it out to claw back some of the money I've been paying out over the last few years.

The business that I have created is almost ready to go live so I am busying myself with making sure all the T's are crossed and the i's are dotted. I've decided to start slowly with only a few destinations and build from there. The site should go live on Tuesday 13th February all being well so check it out if you get time. www.CarhireOutlet.com. If you get a login and password screen pop-up when you click on the link, it means the sites not quite finished, so please bear with me. The web designers have worked really hard on the site and although it is a month overdue I am really pleased with the finished article. I have also managed to sign up some companies for additional extras like travel insurance, airport lounge passes and florida attraction tickets. I am also trying to source some hotel sites and maybe even flight companies for the future. If anyone has a site that they wish to add and has space on their own site for a reciprocal link then please drop me a line via www.CarhireOutlet.com/contactus.php.

Other News

It's been snowing here again in London (did someone mention global warming!) albeit for a day, but there is something magical about this city with a white layer across all the rooftops. It was enough to cause a few headaches for the transport network but of course it doesnt last long and it has all gone now so we are left with just the cold weather instead.

That's all for the moment, wish me luck on Tuesday with the website.

Catch you here again soon,

David
