    One week away is never enough is it? However, since the children were staying with their auntie a week was all we could do and so we made the most of it. We had to overcome the guilt of going away on our own, but then, when you are there 24/7 for your children, one week off each year isn't a great deal to ask for is it?

    So we headed off to Lanzarote in the Canary Islands where the weather was fantastic and we spent the mornings sunning ourselves on the beach before going off on an excursion to somewhere in the afternoon. In the evening we would go into town for a meal or a dirnk. All in all, it was the most relaxing week I have had in years. My wife was a little on age at first but soon settled down when she realised we weren't drawing any attention from anyone around either our hotel or the beach.

    If there was a downside to any of it, it would be the fact that my boobs were not my own! To me, everything is still too muscular but after twenty years of training, that isn't about to change. I just looked like a Ms Olympia contestant, lol.

    By the way, snorkelling is easier with boobs, you are far more bouyant, lol.

    One place we visited was the national park, which is basically the result of a series of volanic explosions, the are is littered with volcanoes, the remnants of them and lava fields. It's bleakness and desolation is strangely beautiful. Especially so at sunset when the reds, oranges and russets colours of the land are picked out superbly by the suns rays. It really does look like another world.

    The only issue I have now is the white bits where my bikini top was. I need to get them as tanned as the rest of me now. Oh the things a girl has to deal with.................
