Costa Needs A Costa Holiday
October 1st, 2008
Costa, Holiday? I wish. I don’t know what it is lately but life has been far from one big holiday. In fact I have not been on one of my infamous Costa Holidays for three years. Before I get into what makes a great Costa Holiday let me just explain what has been going on with me.
Firstly, I lost my business due to illness. Thankfully the banks came and took all my money, which meant I did not have to worry how I was going to spend it.
Secondly, my two eldest children have decided work is not for them and have taken lowly paid part time jobs. Obviously a full time job would interfere with their social life.
Thirdly, the credit crunch is biting hard here in the Goldfish Bowl. The price of gas and electricity has trebled, petrol is through the roof, and food is so expensive it’s cheaper to eat the money.
Lastly, what little we have left, the bailiffs have decided to take. Thank God they can’t take this computer, then again who would want a 7 year old Packard Bell 512?
Anyway, that’s the moaning out of the way.
The one thing I enjoyed before all this hassle began was a good Costa Holiday. So what makes a good Costa Holiday? Well here’s my checklist.
Costa Holiday - Check List
-
Plenty of money - Well there is no point in stressing over what you spend.
-
Spanish Costa - Spain is my favourite holiday destination.
-
Sun - No lack of sun in Spain.
-
Beach - Lots of golden sun-baked sand.
-
Food - When say food I mean local cuisine, not the usual steak and chips.
-
Beer - Lots and lots of ice cold beer….mmmmm sorry I was gone then.
-
Lastly, and most importantly, family. What good is a holiday if you can’t spend it with the ones you love?
There you have it, the perfect Costa holiday.
Well as this site is all about shooting the breeze on ever subject under the sun I am looking for topics to discuss, that’s where you lot come in. If you have any views on anything just leave a comment and start the ball rolling.
For now thanks for visiting the Goldfish Bowl and reading my mindless ramblings I artfully called Costa Needs a Costa Holiday
