A Quest for the Surviviors



Welcome to the New Year of 2009, but what can we expect from this New Year and new beginning?. We could sit back and continue to listen to the media sharks, hacking huge lumps of meat out of the credit crunch and turning it into a fatal Crisis. We could start counting our pennies, withdrawing our cash, and start to build air raid shelters to protect us from the falling financial blocks of the world. This is exactly what the media want to see, it gives them more news. When people become desperate, they do crazy things, crazy things make front page headlines for the largest newspapers of the world. Why shouldn't they fuel the worst financial disaster since the wall street crash of the late 1920's. Before long we should be reading about great depressions, and prohibition shouldn't we?
The future is what we determine it to be, suddenly everyone understands stocks and shares, they are all concerned by the price of oil, yet they have never bought a barrel, so why do we care?. We care about the price of petrol at the pump, we care about the price of food in the supermarket, we care for today, and we care for tomorrow, and if we have enough money to get us through the next two days, then we can deal with the next two thereafter.
We have all become financial extremists over the last 12mths, and we all have become wild gypsy's reading crystal balls.
The truth is, nobody knows what the recession will hold, but if you are ready for a challenge, then there is one right in front of you for 2009. We can all turn and look for easy options, but nothing has changed, we still need to work, whatever country we are in. We still seek finical freedom, and we still have bills to pay.
I suggest we stop worrying about what might happen, and we make a resolution to worry about whats happening right now, and deal with it.
Let's take the Spanish bull by the horns, and somersault it to the ground, then lets hold it there until it runs out of air.
If 2009 wants a fight then I am ready for it, and I'm taking no prisoners,
Recession, bring it on, I love a good challenge!

Secret Tenerife


If your visiting Tenerife in the near future, you may well need some ideas on how to spend your time. The website Secret Tenerife is a fabulous place to start, whilst browsing the web in the UK before your holiday. Tenerife is a fantastic place to visit, but needn't cost you a small fortune if you have the right information.
Seceret Tenerife is just that, a well written informative website containing pages and pages of all the hidden places, the local walks, the night outs and the things you can do on holiday. Visiting this website before your visit, can save you money and really make your holiday worth while.
I have just spent a weeks holiday around the island, and used Secret Tenerife everyday, having three young children, it can become very expensive if we don't carefully consider our choices. I have been caught up many times on expensive excursions, and treated like cattle once trapped inside their cages. Holidays in Tenerife can be a very pleasant experience and great value for money with a little research.
The website will also keep you informed of the local activities that are about to happen, and not after they have happened, (which in Tenerife is a common thing to find). Newspapers are always full of events that were so exciting two weeks ago, and nothing about the week ahead. Most of the problem is they are only available every two weeks, with last weeks news. But hey! who needs newspapers, Seceret Tenerife even offer an email service, that will keep you upto date on virtually a daily basis.
Now many companies send out what we call "junk Mail" and it can become annoying. But can I also mention here, that the newsletters you receive from Secret Tenerife, are informative, and a great source of information. They have helped me to plan ahead, and my whole family looks forward to great weekends spent around the island, experiencing the cultures and traditions of Tenerife.
If your are looking for activities, nights out or places to relax, you will find it all on their website www.secret-tenerife.com, and if you need phone numbers or contact details for any of the places they suggest you can find them all on Tenerife's biggest business directory bptenerife.com
