My first proper Earthquake!

 Last night at 3.07am was woken to everything moving, bedroom cupboard door rattling and general WTF moment! This is my first really quake, the previous one I had felt while I was offshore in Qatar, but thought that was just the crane driver being a bit rough with a load landing. Last nights was different, the whole place was shaking and lying it bed it felt really weird last a good 20+ seconds I would have guessed. Turns out it was a Magnitude 6.6, located around 48Km WNW of Polis, off the west coast of Cyprus. At least no damage here and everyone fine. Eldest daughter thought it was 'so cool', think that was her first experience of one as well. Full details can be found at: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000gaqu/executive

Reccy visit!

The flights are booked, the car hire is booked just need to sort out accommodation!

Yes, it is time to go on a reccy visit to check out the schools and do some villa hunting. With my current rota, unfortunately the school holidays don't line up, so will need to take the kids out of school. Needs must however.

I managed to use all my accumulated air miles from the last couple of years to pay for the majority of the flights for the 4 of us, so that is a bit of a boost!

I have continued to trawl the websites of numerous agencies, but still no closer to pulling together a shortlist!

This next 5 months are absolutely going to fly by!

Hi there, thank you for reading and sharing your comments, please keep it clean as my kids are probably reading and no spam/linking off to other commercial sites!
