Hi folks, what a busy month I have had! Firstly, I got married on the beautiful, sunny day of the 10th. I will be writing a diary about the wedding and be posting it on here early January. I am having some technical problems getting all the photographs onto the website. Dennis, our I.T. manager, is back from his holidays soon and he will be able to fix the problem.

Anyway, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. Here at good ole Pearly Grey, the sales team did their very own “Panto” on Christmas Eve! The guys really put a lot of time into rehearsals. I was cast as Barron Hardup, (I wonder why?), and Kevin, along with the spectacular Heather, played the ugly sisters. Donna played the excitable Buttons, and Linda played Fairy Liquid. Karin was cast as Prince Charming and, low and behold, Disco Stu played the beautiful Cinderella!

I, unfortunately, could never get to rehearsal so on the night I still did not know my lines, and was told just to ad-lib. One thing you never let happen is to give me a microphone after the few bottles of Vino we had guzzled with the amazing food the restaurant had treated us to! They could not get me off the stage; I thought it was the welcome meeting!

All the gang did a fantastic job, especially our Compare, Heather, who is really starting to come into her own. I could not stop laughing at the outfits we all wore. Kevin had to be the funniest, as one of the ugly sisters. It was an absolutely unforgettable evening.

So folks, I will try to put some photos onto this entry.

Don’t forget to look out for the wedding diary in early January. It was an amazing, gorgeous day. My wife looked spectacular.
One last thing, if you read this, please leave a message directly below, this only takes a couple of seconds and it means the world to me.
Take great care of yourselves and have a fantastic prosperous New Year. Come and see us soon, and catch some beautiful winter sunshine, world class entertainment, amazing food, not forgetting the planet´s best sunsets. What more do you need?
Kindest regards,
Dougie

During the month of January the Bodyzone Health & Fitness Club will have a great special offer for all Pearly Grey guests – When you purchase a weekly membership at the club you will also receive 2 FREE day-passes to the SPA area which you can give to any member of your family/party staying with you. The offer will run for the whole month of January so there’s no excuse not to get fit & fully recuperated after the hectic festive season!

Hope to see you soon!

Ana-Maria

2007 has flown past very quickly and so much has happened here at Pearly Grey. On the 10th of December many owners and staff were privileged to be present at Dougie and Ana Maria’s wedding. It was wonderful. The venue was obviously at PG and the reception was brilliant. They both looked amazing (soon photos will follow). Dougie will definitely update you more in detail on this event in Dougie’s Diary soon after he returns next week.

We celebrated our staff Christmas party on the 4th of December. There we nominated the Employee of the Year, and the winner was Siona, from housekeeping. Her prize was €500. By the way she is Nati, the Housekeeper’s mother, and has been with us for 22 years! 2nd runner up was Stuart from the bar. He is contesting it for next year of course. Also the room maid couple of the year was chosen, and again it was Siona with Maria. They won a trip to a resort in Europe, fully paid for.

If your birthday is during your stay at Pearly Grey we will offer you a FREE 3 course dinner provided that you can prove it’s your birthday. Please make your birthday dinner bookings to adrian@pearlygrey.com
This offer is not valid for Christmas & New Year events.
Watch out for our special half board prices and special evenings in Razzmatazz restaurant. The food is absolutely excellent and great value for money, especially for those with £ to spend.

We are pleased to announce that once again we have achieved RCI Silver Crown status. Next year, we´re going for Gold!

Finally our fire and safety plan has now come to an end. A final inspection will take place later this month and this means we are now fully equipped in all areas. You will notice in all the apartments there are fire evacuation plans.

For those of you that own on the sea front, for years now you have encountered the endless vibrations of the water smashing against the rocks in the cave beneath you. This should now be much quieter! What we have done is to drill four holes of 14m each in the cave, which forces the water to enter with a suction effect and often there are times that it pushes the water out by another 6m.

Also currently taking place are some structural changes in the gym, one of them is the installation of new wooden flooring.

As we are a safety conscious resort, we have now covered the entire area of the children’s pool with an anti slip surface.

Something new in your apartment you will notice on your next visit is the new apartment directory. This gives you ALL the information you need about the resort and other diverse general information.

Unfortunately our loyal and friendly guard, Pedro, has left us for personal reasons, less hours and an easier lifestyle. His substitute is almost a clone of him, name is Gonzalo.

Soon you will receive the AGM pack, which includes an Owners Referral Program leaflet .This program has worked brilliantly over the past years at PG. Should you need to receive more information detailing how you too can take part, the contact details are included on the back of it.

For all you owners that are in a need of a rented car whilst on holiday, don’t forget we have our own rent a car fleet of 20 vehicles with very competitive prices. You can view our rent a car section and information on our webpage. There are always specials on offer or contact serge@pearlygrey.com for your next booking.

Finally, after a few teething obstacles we have finally selected a permanent compere, she is English and her name is Heather. She is very lively and will definitely entertain you!

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous 2008.
