It’s a funny old day, there is blue sky and a few clouds so far. Our my not so humble opinion (woof!) it could go either way… maybe rain, maybe it will clear up to be gorgeous. But the best part is that i’m still living in my favorite place in the whole world, and i know i will be going for a long walk along the beautiful beach later.
It is humid and very close. A day to sit by the pool and contemplate my tail.
Normally April is our driest month and any rain showers are short and fleeting. Well, last week we had one big day of rain and the mosquitoes came out in force 2 months early. We normally don’t see them until June. The San Pedro Town Council were right on to it. They set up the big sprayer and eradicated the mosquitoes within a couple of days.
It’s good to know that the new mayor and his administration know how important rapid mosquito control is to everyone living on and visiting our island. Under the previous mayor we would have waited for many days for the spraying to begin. In fact we’re not sure she would have known what to do with April mosquitoes as she never had to deal with that problem. Perhaps we would have had to wait until June before anything was done……

Some friends will be travelling to San Pedro, Belize within the next few weeks.
What is the nightlife like there? Is there a club/bar scene or are brothels our only chances of meeting women? Any information you can provide on locations, prices, hours of operation would be appreciated.
Thanks

Last night the Ambergris Daily went anbd visited two bars which are situated around Super Buy. One opposite stank of urine and had 3 girls who probably do not have the correct papers.They did not smile even though theirjob is to provide company for San Pedro’s working class. The second close by which advertises Hong Kong and is very similar to the slums of downtown Kowloon where only the poorest of the poor go. This wonderful bar has no toilets, stinks, and is without a doubt totally disgusting, and has no place in San Pedro.
It is patently obvious that the SPLLB (San pedro liquor Licensing Board) does not have a clue about what is going on and they should either buck-up or resign. These bars praying on the workers with dubious fruit machines, are taking monies away from the families that really need sustinence.
This is a social problem and there is no reason why we in San Pedro should support these few bars,by allowing them to print money at our residents expense. There are now 14 girly bars and all are designed for local workers.
Wow! Did it rain cats and dogs last night. Splat heard the noise on the roof and she disappeared under the bed, and miaowed. Jambo hardly moved and I was as brave as brave could be,by rolling on my back and going back to sleep.
The rest of the day looks pretty horrible but the temperature is down and it is very cool which Lady Boss appreciates.
The UNC students who have been doing a wonderful job teaching at the various local schools for the past 6 weeks are leaving on Saturday. They have requested a Star Wars party and there are huge prizes for all contestants. There will be a free drink for everyone that turns up in costume and of course Gino and the Shackshakers will be playing. It’s not definite, but Hugo may be cooking his famous Paella dish. There will be a very quick trivia round on Star Wars! Just 10 questions for a free bar tab, so brush up on your original 70′s and 80′s Star Wars!
It appears that the new officer in charge of the San Pedro police station is indifferent to the crimes that take place on the beach every night between the Catholic Church and San Pedro Library. The police are working as security guards and appear to have very close liaisons with the most obvious street dealers of drug paraphernalia. It is obvious to a 10-year old who has normal intelligence that these guys are breaking the law. How come it is not evident to the police and the authorities?
The skies are blue, a few wispy clouds dotted around. It is a great day to grab a flight to go and see the Blue Hole as some of my guests are doing in the next couple of hours. They are only paying just over 100usd each on a private 3-seater plane. I am trying to persuade them to take me as I like anything expensive like planes and boats but the big boss is too mean to have either. Anyway, I am very busy today as I’m arranging lunch for Jambo and myself tomorrow as Barcelona are playing Chelsea and we both want roast chicken, roast potatoes, veggies and yorkshire pudding!
The Island Ferry definitely needs an overhaul as it is too expensive, and it appears to have managerial problems. the staff are complacent and almost all restauarants and hotels north of the bridge complain about the service. the drivers,if told, seem to forget pick-ups which leaves our tourists on the dock for another hour. Also the complaints about rudeness are legendary as it appears customer satisfaction is not a requirement for this business.
It would probably be a good idea if the hotels and restaurants got together and started their own service but they would then have to work together -another unlikely event.
