Re: long time noo speak
We're all fine, Mr E's doing well, starting to get business here, so he is made up. I've got a lil part-time job now....needs must as sooooo skint. It's bar work......never done before so bit nervous but I'm sure it will be fine.
Good Luck in your new job, hope it all goes well for you.
As you say lack of funds get you down but you are a fighter so it will not be for long. Glad your husband is now getting business in Spain.
The only way is up, we do not allow any downs here do we.

Thanks ever so much Rosemary.....like you said the only way is up.....and I have me chin up way up in the air....it's great to have so much positive and great support from you guys.
You are such a sweetie
Best get kids ready for bed....we were going out but friends of our's needed help so Mr E's gone to help.....pity as it was a new friend of mine who invited us along to a pub with a play area and a few other mums with kids the same ages as my two......never mind they'll be other Friday's that we will be free.

It's an English bar unfortunately, altho I had 3 Spanish customers...which was a challenge
Actually I'm glad I'm learning the ropes with English.....as my Spanish is quite poor, although suprisingly I held a conversation of sorts with a Spanish customer...it was funny.
I'm just chuffed I was given the oppurtnity as I have no experience....once I have bar experience hopefully a Spanish bar will employ me in the summer where I will gain more experience and hopefully more Spanish....
I did really well...I was soooooo nervous 20 mins early and keen to impress - felt like a teenager again but now I can pull pints
They said I did good and have given me two shifts this week....tonight and tomorrow.
I have also been offered a cleaning job with someone else....so my friends think this is hilarious......I'm living the high life now .... scrubber and barmaid
Needs must hey! And I'm not too proud ...we are enjoying our life as a family in Spain...wouldn't want to leave here....I don't mind being a professional scrubber
Thanks for asking......hope you had a great weekend xxx

Hi Mrs E
Please to hear that the job is panning out for you, all the best gals have been a scubber at some point in their life, I think I missed my vocation I would have been really happy as a barmaid, my youngest daughter did it for 3 years in Lewisham, London she had a great time and enjoyed every moment of it, including the punch ups that happened every weekend.
All the best to you
