Monday morning...   What a great weekend..Saturday: Daughters 21st and her boyfriend organised a great surprise party while i took her horse riding and chilled in the sun.   However whilst chilling in the sun...thinking about Acu-Nova and what will be the plan for the coming week. Sunday: Took dogs on fantastic walk to the lighthouse where 1. I almost got caught butt naked by a group of German tourists ... I thought it was a remote beach!  and the dogs made the water look sooooo inviting so i thought i would strip off too....duh!!  and  2. almost had to call someone to rescue me because poor old dog would not climb back up the cliff!!!  however with persuasion, pushing and pulling rescue by the Guardia civil was avoided! Thank goodness my cold will be better by next week and my normal Sunday entertainment of talking to fishes  under the sea will prevail.....no i am not nuts...but I am a diving fanatic...and Sundays, come summer and winter see me at West Coast Divers  for my regular chats with Nemo and the like...with my great dive buddy, occasional muse and Dive master...Clive Davis, he has been one of my constant sources of encouragement and just had to have a mention.   So back to Monday morning and Acu-Nova, start with the business plan again which I realise that while I am writing this I could be killing two birds with one stone and building a website at the same time, more or less using the same information...and I am hating this business plan, already have my purchased domain names of  www.acu-nova.es and .com  bought over a year ago and put on the back burner!  so needed to buy some hosting and learn to build a website.....daunting, but finances do not allow for me to purchase the expertise of a professional so this will be a sharp learning curve!  4pm Monday afternoon....still struggling to buy hosting ... some people click a few buttons,  I end up on the telephone trying to explain to some poor Spanish tecnico what exactly it is that I want and need.  7pm Monday...glass of wine and a celebration, am now the proud owner of hosting from "1 and 1" using thier "easy peasy any idiot can do this"  website designer  "instant web pro"  decide its time to switch off the computer for the night at least ending the day on a satisfied note :-)  and managed to successfully avoid writing the business plan  oh noooooooooo.
