Day 57- Friday
Lie in until 9- heaven. Tom and Matt are off to play golf with our family friend. Matt is very excited as he hasn't played golf in Dubai for months with me being ill. Golf in Dubai in very expensive (normally over 100 pounds!) as the courses are all amazing. But today is his Christmas present from Dad, Tom and Holly.
Mum was woken in the night by Malika head butting her. Well she is a Millwall pooch now! That is how they roll! Malika continues to be naughty. She has eaten a hole in mum's new pink bag and opened the corner of a present! I have a good tidy up in case it is the general chaos of the house that is making her naughty. Doesn't work- she steals a sweet off the table! She is too spoilt with attention and is above her station!
Mum and I head to Spinney's for more food shopping. I have found that when I have chemo I don't feel like drinking but the hospital want me drinking at least 2l a day. Purdeys is the only drink I fancy and it is rarely stocked in Dubai so we buy 20 bottles today! When we are ready to pay mum asks the cashier if there is someone who can pack our bags! How Dubai is that?! I don't know how she will return to England and have to pack her own shopping bags!
Spend time helping Holly write her CV. She is thinking about getting a job over here. Why would you not want to live here?.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz8A1itDoTo
I am good at CVs. Find it's all about selling yourself and Holly has her languages to boast about. When we are finished her CV is double the length and contains lots of adjectives!
Tonight we are going out to the souks and then for dinner at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel with a voucher. In Dubai you can buy an Entertainer book that contains 'buy one, get one free' vouchers for loads of restaurants. It is really good value and we don't go anywhere where you can't use a voucher! The vouchers expire tomorrow so we are desperate to use one last one!
