Spanish Sojourn

Marbella

Blimey ........ we missed the fun and games by a week or two. Police have been all over the town brandishing guns as the Mayor, a woman wouldn't you know, was arrested for questioning about financial irregularities and misappropriation of funds. According to Sur she was in bed recovering from liposuction at the time of her arrest! It could only happen in Marbella! 19 other councillors were hauled in too and are still behind bars. Stacks of cash have been found in some of their houses.

Worse still, the beach is shrinking back to its original rocky shoreline. No sand has been imported for some years. Cars are parked willy nilly all over the beach approaches because the franchise for towing cars away is under investigation.

But its good to be back. My daughter and grandchildren have joined us and we are enjoying what is left of the beach, building lots of sandcastles while we can! :-)

Priceless I know. I wonder what happened to her recovery while she was in prison? As far as I know she is still in custody.

With lipo I'm told you have to wear this tight fitting body suit to keep all the lose skin in and are not allowed to take it off - even for the lavvy as it has stategically placed openings!

How horrendous!

Yuk! That's gross!

I've erased lipo from my 'Things To Do' list!

People must be really desperate to go through that to get rid of fat! I'll stick to my lettuce leaf and gym!
