Destination Europe


Marcos Baghdatis is through to the next round of the US Open. He is one of my favourite players after seeing him do so well at the Aussie Open earlier this year. I also like to support the Greek boy seeing I am of Greek origin. I watched most of his game and it wasn’t [...]

Henin-Hardenne won her first match of the US Open. Of course it’s not surprising that she would beat someone ranked 45 in the world. In the men’s competition, the number 2 seed against the number 45 could still be a good match but that is never the case in the women’s competition.
I’ve never liked Henin-Hardenne [...]

I like to buy organic products wherever possible but haven’t bought much in the way of clothes. I bought my husband a few organic t-shirts and they were very nice. The material is very soft and they look just as great after washing. I would buy some more but would like to see a few [...]

I was very disappointed not to have seen any Wimbledon matches this year. The Tennis is normally shown on Eurosport or France 2 or 3 here in France but for some reason that wasn’t the case with Wimbledon. I didn’t get to see even one match. I think it was shown on Canal+ but I [...]

I went to Bordeaux a couple of years ago with my husband. It was just for the weekend and even though it was in the middle of winter and freezing, I loved it. The food was great and they have the best hot chocolate in the world.
On our return we found a very green city, [...]

I have finally started reviewing bingo websites. I created a blog where I talk about different bingo sites, how to play bingo, which are the best sites, and where to find the best deals. It’s pretty fun reviewing the sites so it’s not really like work. I hope to add one review per day although [...]

Our holiday finally arrived and we were off to Tours. I was very tired on Friday night but I thought it would be best to leave for our holiday then rather than to go Saturday morning. I always find it difficult to get up early on a Saturday and so we probably wouldn’t have left [...]

I am back from my too short holiday and will be getting back to work today. I enjoyed travelling around France and Spain. I love travelling by car and hope to have a much longer holiday next year. I’ll blog about my adventures later but for now will mention my new blog.
I have wanted to [...]

Today is my last day of work before a 10 day break. I’ve been so looking forward to it. I’ve hired a car and we’re going to head to the beaches down towards Bordeaux and the Spanish border. I’m sure we’ll cross over to Spain as neither of us have been there before.
Along the way [...]

I went to Le Marche aux Puces de Saint-Ouen today which is at Porte de Clignacourt to the north of Paris. The first thing to note on arriving is that it is a working class immigrant area. A typical trait of this kind of area is that it is very lively which lots of cheap [...]
