Jen and me sat in the pub today and she came up with this...
I went off to Arillas,
I was in seventh heaven.
And what used to be my six pack
Is now a party seven!
(jen describing phil....)
with love all

I first went to Arillas
In 2002
I feel I left my heart there
Let's face it
Wouldn't you?
I went to Arillas
for the first time this year
On the first day it was windy
And I got bloody soaked on the pier
I love Arillas in the spring time
I love Arillas in the fall
I love Arillas in the summer when it sizzles
I love Arillas in the winter when it drizzles
I love Arillas every moment
Every moment of the year
I love Arillas,
why oh why do I love Arillas
Because I love it there.
(with apologies to Cole Porter)

We've been going to Arillas
Since 1987
We keep on going back for more
A paradise in heaven.
We'll be coming back next year
To the sun, sand and sea
And many years after that
As Arillas is the place to be

Hey Mango - a nicely crafted original ditty.
We've had a sharp frost here in Lincolnshire - how are things in Rotherham?
Best wishes
PJ
Arillas is a faboulous place
where everyone has a friendly face.
No need to rush
just lean back on your tush.
Drinks are cold and service comes with a smile
and afterwards there is no need to run a mile.
This is where we long to be
chilling out by the sea.
Arillas is a state of mind
that makes you feel warm and kind.
Hi Patrickjohn
It was very cold and frosty here in Rotherham this morning. But now the sun is out and the sky is blue, not a cloud to spoil the view!!!
Mango
I think you've found your new vocation Mango!!!
How about ( As I've just read a post called "Arillas" )
A guy called JIM123
He says Arillas is "Skata"
It don't bother you & it don't bother me
But gives us a chance for a natter.
( Skata is the Greek for S**T )
Cheers
Negg
Nice one Negg.
Thanks for the Info Eggy, at least it confirms that JIM123 is a little skata
Couldn't resist posting that one.

Eggy and Terry that was very good. The best laugh iv'e had all day....riggers....
Thought I'd share this one at this time of eurovision whilst our Roving Reporter is "over 'ere" :
Though it hurts to go away
It's impossible to stay
But there's one thing we must say
Before you go
We love you (We love you) you know
We'll be drinking to you
In most everything we do
Now the time is moving on
And you really should be gone
But you keep us hanging on
For one more post
we love you (we love you) the most
With the weather OK
Will you promise that you'll save
Your donkey's for me
Save all your donkey's for me
Bye bye Neggy bye bye
Don't cry Weggy don't cry
Gotta walk out the door
And go back to Mon Amour
Donkey's for me
Save all your donkey's for me
So long Neggy so long
Hang on Weggy hang on
Don't you dare try to stay
Coz in Blighty throughout May
We've all got to work each day
And that's why we go away
So we count the seconds
Till we're home with you
We love you (We love you) it's true
You should be on BBC
For the donkey sanctury
Your donkey's for me
Save all your donkey's for me
Bye bye Neggy bye bye
Don't cry Weggy don't cry
Take the Pug to the shore
Be on webcam and more
Donkey's for me
Save all your donkey's for me
So long Neggy so long
Hang on Weggy hang on
No more ouzo today
Jelly Babies out to play
Your donkey's for me
Save all your donkey's for me
Bye bye Neggy bye bye
Don't cry Weggy don't cry
Go on down to the sea
Pickled onions are for free....

Excellent Jen !
Brilliant! I sang a long too. 2008 Arillas song I think!
Only just caught up with your ditty for this year, Jen.
It's brilliant!!!
Love, Lynn x
Justjen's verse was really witty,
I thought I'd write a little ditty.
It started ok but it grew and grew,
The line count was nearing 62.
Very soon it went off the page,
I couldn't stop or disengage.
Finally, I looked at it and thought,
This isn't a ditty, it's a holiday report!
So posted in a new board today
Is Lynn and Colin's holiday.
A bit like Mary had a little lamb....
Charlie had a bit of Lamb, it took a bit of chewin'
He tried to cut it with a knife, but there was nothing doin'
He asked the boss what had gone wrong as he couldn't even suck it
The answer was "I'm sorry about that, its the way we always cook it.
Poor Charlie went back to his room a bit sad that his meal had gone wrong
But woke next day to a blazing sun and an awful pong
The source of smell could not be found despite a lot of sniffing
But Charlie wouldn't eat there although their food was spiffing.
The holiday came to an end and it had been a great success.
Until he got to the Airport and got into a mess.
The Airport had long queues of people which caused him great disdain,
I think he was expecting his own private plane
But never mind never mind its all over now and the topic has ended
I just hope this little ditty has not saddened of offended
Good response , Terry.
Exactly what was needed!
Terry, I am rolling round the floor at that!
Fantastic! :-) :-) :-)
Good un Terry , laughed my head off

Run out of new posts to read so I've been going back to all the past stuff posted on here. There is such a wealth of talent and skill to be read. Won't name names but there are fabulous contributions from photographers, poets, posters, posers, p-artists (sorry Eggy I meant me...) etc.
I am so sad it is all stored away on Dimtris server's hard drive waiting to be seen again one day and then basically lost. I seriously recommend all to spend a while looking at the past posts on here. There is so much to learn and see.
Dimitris has created a virtual Arillas. I am glad to be part of it.
