Re floods:
Yes, the man that was stuck in the grate and died was on my street. It took rescue 3 hours to get to him, and he died a further 2 hours later. I cannot help but feel guilty for being away. I would have insisted on amputation and removal if I would have been here. He would have survived.

We had a great honeymoon in Malta - they were having a really bad heatwave - degrees of 40 and above in celcius - so we spent alot of time swimming at the beach or in one of the 4 pools at the resort.

We saw some filming for a tv show or perhaps a film with that lass that plays Eileen Grimshaw - real name Sue Cleaver - from Corrie at one of the beaches - Ramla bay on Gozo Island. She was dead stuck up and full of herself. She came up and said hello to me at one point. I didn’t know who she was, but she thought everyone knew her. I don’t watch those soap operas - I feel that they cater to boring mindless housewives with nothing better to do.

I turned to Rob and said that she looked like one of those old biddies who are always trying to flog insurance on the tv ads.

I did feel for her though, they had her in lots of clothing on a very hot day - about 40 degrees, and she couldn’t even cool off in the water.

They had some nice plastic fantastic models there who were full of silicone. The staff were also trying to tell the Maltese people where they could and couldnt go on the beach and in the water - the people laughed at them and carried on their way. How pompous were they?

I have photos of it all that I will post later - and send to Heat magazine!

On a plus side, I have went down 2 dress sizes. Although I have eaten more than usual with the 2 honeymoons and the wedding, I have done alot of exercise in the last few weeks.

There will be great honeymoon photos in the gallery later, once I have sorted out the insurance stuff for the flood damage and get some sandbags in - everyone is out of stock at the moment. I am on the list for the council and have arranged to get some when MKM get a delivery today or tomorrow.
