Twinkle is back from Seychelles!!!!
Hi Everyone,
I am back in Dubai ...With the usual holiday cold ....Sorry Blue Cat (saw her today she might have caught it). She actually met Mr Star today!
We were on our way to Apre bar for some champus cocktails, Mr Star has stayed to meet a work mate so I escaped by taxi to log in! 
Seychelles was lovely for a couple of days then got boring ...Just a load of different shaped rocks with bushes on!
My camera broke (the pictures have white fuzzy lines on???) had to buy 2disposable one's there!!! Have not used thesecond one up yet ...Its a case of using the last pictures up OMG! How primitive! will take pictures of the house and car etc like in the old days!
The landing was really impressive, the plane seemed to be skimming the water and the pilots must be really skilled to land there.
It was sunny most of the time but had some rain.
Went to an island and saw giant tortoises ...One did a big leafy poo!
Our 4 star plus hotel (more like a bad 3 star) was cr@p (lack of towels, scratchy sheets, cold food, bad service etc) and after three days I complained and we upgraded to another hotel. Mr Star said "as long as my wife is happy then sod the extra expense" The new hotel was 5 star and really nice, the food was good, they had white linen sheets, great service and we had a really good time ...Shame we didnt book there straight away.
Am really glad to be back in Dubai ...even tho it is Soooooooooo Hot here!! ...Already!??? I came here, last year in mid June and it wasnt that hot till July Phewww!
Have I missed anything whilst i have been away?
Give us the goss!!

Re: Twinkle is back from Seychelles!!!!
The first hotel had large bottles of wine ...kinda like out of a box wine He did buy me champagne and expensive wine at the 5 star hotel to make up for the ordeal!
