...really!

Martini mission

Friday, 24. July 2009, 16:08:47

,

I was out doing some shopping after work today, when I noticed something in the corner of my eye...
Had I really seen what I thought I had?
I'd better have another look...No, my eyes didn't fool me! There really seems to be something called a martini spa. :heart:
I have to investigate further.
Let's see... My first clue is the text. It's written in Italian (well, except "Black")... :sherlock:
Luckily, I have tickets to go there tomorrow! :yes:

Wish me luck on my expedition! I'll be back in two weeks, but only for a day so let's just say I'll be back in three weeks instead. :wink:

Have a nice summer! I'm going to miss you!
:heart:

Double lifeMission accomplished!

So this is what your status was referring to. awww

Good luck finding the Martini Spa. :yes:

rose-marie 24. July 2009, 16:12

Yep! :D
:sst: Did you notice I calculated it all wrong? :lol: :o:

Thanks. Hopefully I'll be successful! *fingers crossed*

Moesring 24. July 2009, 16:16

Do you pwomise to take pictures if you find it? awww

rose-marie 24. July 2009, 16:21

I certainly do! :yes:

Spaggyj 24. July 2009, 16:26

Ooh, an adventure! :D

rose-marie 24. July 2009, 16:28

Yeah! Makes it sound much more exciting, doesn't it? p:

Moesring 24. July 2009, 16:30

I've just realised. That picture for the "Me" tag. It's a beautiful eye. :love:

:sst: I presume it is one of yours? :left:

Spaggyj 24. July 2009, 16:38

It is exciting, dear Rose!

You don't recognise Rosie's eye? Bad Moe!

Dacotah 24. July 2009, 17:08

Ok confused, what does T-1 mean?
You going to the spa for two weeks?
Going to miss you.
Have fun wherever you are going.
:heart:

Zaphira 24. July 2009, 17:50

I'll never get used to you going away. awww :sigh:

- Have fun...

*checks to see if the suitcase is open so the kitty can sneak into it*

:heart:

Phantom2 24. July 2009, 18:05

Martini Spa!
Now that truly does sound interesting! :smile:

rose-marie 24. July 2009, 19:25

It is one of mine, thanks Moe p:

Kimmie - Now I just have to hope that exciting adventures come my way too. :lol:

Sorry for the confusion, Carol. I'm not going to a spa. I'm going to Italy. The martini spa stuff I found today was just a lame attempt to try to tie together a post telling you I'll be away for a few weeks. :lol:
:sst: Of course, if I do find a martini spa (whatever that is), I'll be sure to visit it! :yes:

Kitty - the suitcase is open. And empty :whistle:
Unfortunately, that means I guess I have to start packing soon... *sigh* The least favourite part of travelling. awww

P2 - I think so too! :D Unfortunately, the martini spa items on the pictures seem to be nothing but some sort of hemp scrubs...

Dacotah 24. July 2009, 20:29

Wow Italy, you all are lucky to be able to travel to cool places. :smile:
Have a great time.
What's T-1 mean?

rose-marie 24. July 2009, 21:31

Thanks Carol! :happy:

Oh yeah, I forgot Homer: Doh!. T-1 is a countdown. 1 more day until lift off :D.

p.mansoor 24. July 2009, 21:50

Have fun but remember that it's blistering hot down south. :D

Dacotah 24. July 2009, 21:50

You are welcome. :happy:

That's what I thought. "Houston, we have lift off" you'll be saying soon. :D

clean 24. July 2009, 21:52

* ahem *

Ciao! :wink: :heart:

rose-marie 24. July 2009, 21:57

Thanks Peter :D. I saw that it's very hot down there now. Luckily, there's an ocean nearby where I can cool off... :wink:

Exactly, Carol! I just hope there won't be a "Houston, we have a problem" :eek:

Ciao bello Davide! Ci vediamo. :D :wink:

clean 24. July 2009, 22:13

Oh ... no ... I don't speak Italian. I was just thinking about food ... :left: :right: :wink:

Spaggyj 24. July 2009, 22:17

You usually bring back stories, no? You will find an adventure, I'm sure :D

ellinidata 24. July 2009, 22:33

Have a flipping awsome time!!!!! :yes:

Dacotah 24. July 2009, 23:23

:no: there will be "Houston we have a problem".

Hermitess 25. July 2009, 02:05

Have a great time Rose!!

:D

:cool:

Don't forget your SPF

gdare 25. July 2009, 05:47

Travelling again? Well, have a nice time and don`t forget your camera. Enjoy your summer :cool:

rose-marie 25. July 2009, 09:59

David - Lots of food have Italian names, so that means you do speak a little... :wink:

Kimmie - I do? :left: Well, I hope you're right! :D :love:

Thanks Angeliki - I will certainly do my very best! :yes:

Thanks Carol, that sounds comforting! :wink:

Thanks Herm :D - I got two different SPFs packed, so I'm all set!

The camera is packed, Darko! :D Thaks for the wishes, and for that wonderful martini *drools*
:heart:

Cois 25. July 2009, 10:54

No more spa when Rosie gets back p:

Dacotah 25. July 2009, 15:00

You are welcome. :D
*Wonders what a martini taste likes* Never had one.

p.mansoor 25. July 2009, 15:07

That depends on whether it was shaken or stirred.

qlue 25. July 2009, 22:09

There's plenty of Spar's here is South Africa, but none of them sell martinis as far as I know. :left:.

p.mansoor 26. July 2009, 10:06

Very funny :lol: There used to be a whole chain of supermarkets down here called De Spar (the logo was a spar tree) and they did sell Martini Bianco and Rosso. :up:

Stomyr 29. July 2009, 19:56

Good luck

(Expected a writing here about martini and other alcoholic stuff) :D:D:D::D

flamingo-rinse 10. August 2009, 00:34

So - when is Rose due back??? (I'm withering away here, getting Rose-Marie withdawal symptoms)

OI!!! ROSE!!! :left: :right: she said 2 weeks.....and I cleaned the apartment especially *narrows eyes and looks at Cois, P2 & the usual suspects, daring them to mess it up before Rose has seen how tidy it is now* :smile:

gdare 10. August 2009, 04:56

She said 2 weeks then one week more :D

flamingo-rinse 10. August 2009, 06:47

Oh. *shoulders slump*. Another week, then *sighs heavily* Where's the Gin? :frown:

gdare 10. August 2009, 07:49

p.mansoor 10. August 2009, 18:19

:lol:
I decided to make good use of the waiting time, so far I have put down wall to wall carpet in 2 bedrooms and the top floor hall.
Tuesday (last week) I started laying down carpet in the living room after I cleared out the furniture.
Today I had to empty the contents of 4 cupboards before I could shift 2 of them. Tomorrow the other 2 must be moved before I can finish the work on the living room carpet. Homer: Doh!
Can I have some of that gin for a large gin and tonic please? :yes:

gdare 10. August 2009, 20:56

Sure :D

p.mansoor 10. August 2009, 21:17

:yes: Thanks, I really needed that! :cheers:

gdare 10. August 2009, 21:20

:cheers:

p.mansoor 17. August 2009, 17:02

:eyes: Rose is back. :cheers:

gdare 17. August 2009, 17:02

How do you know that?

gdare 17. August 2009, 17:03

Status Homer: Doh!

Dacotah 17. August 2009, 17:16

:hat: Missed you Rose-Marie
Welcome back :hat:

Spaggyj 17. August 2009, 17:48

Welcome back, Rosie! We missed you :heart:

Furie 17. August 2009, 22:38

She's back? I was just coming here to complain about her being away so long. I swear this time has been for months. Seems like it anyway.

flamingo-rinse 18. August 2009, 00:58

*picks self up and scrambles out of dumpster, brushes bits of lettuce and shredded paper out of hair, straightens up, hides empty gin bottles under binliner, smiles....*

Rose is back??? Is Rose back??? :YAY: :heart: *does one man mexican wave...then rushes for shower*

:D

Furie 18. August 2009, 01:28

*spray paints "Flamingo Rinse in da house" in foot high letters on Rose's living room wall, empties the solitary bottle of booze that remained untouched, sets up a webcam to observe events and goes into hiding*

gdare 18. August 2009, 04:53

:lol:

flamingo-rinse 18. August 2009, 06:05

:sing: With the lights out, it's less dangerous, Here we are now, entertain us, I feel stupid and contagious, Here we are now, entertain us :sing: *splashes about in the shower, plays air guitar at the loud bits* :D

gdare 18. August 2009, 08:21

:insane:

:sst: don't use her body milk....
