COMMENTS FROM TEAM MEMBERS
Thanks once again to all our team members for your lovely holiday comments. Betty & I were privileged to be with such wonderful friends making our Holiday on Paradise Island one of the very best over the past 10 years.
Special Thanks to Colin & Hilda Franco for visiting us at our hotel spending some time where we were entertained by COLIN playing the guitar and singing all those lovely 'Eagles' songs. Great pity they were not with us through the holiday where both Colin and I would combine with some live entertainment.
'Next time round for certain'
SPECIAL THANKS to
Tony Madeira and John De Silva for joining us on a few occasions at Neptunes. John writes ... quote
"John De Silva Thanks for the great time we had, me Betty's b-day evening was the highlight of the trip. Just returned last evening after a great 3 night stay in Istanbul."
The Team convey thanks to Tony for organising our trip to Stone Town and PRISON ISLAND which was greatly enjoyed by all our first time visitors to Zanzibar. We were fortunate to have the full high tide making our swimming at Prison Island great. We never wanted to come out of the water.

John De Silva Thanks for the great time we
had, me Betty's b-day evening was the highlight of the trip. Just returned last
evening after a great 3 night stay in Istanbul
Benito De Souza Hi John - It was great of you
and Tony to join us celebrating Betty's birthday. We ended up at the bar
enjoying a sing song and the girls certainly belted out the songs. I took my
guitar and small amp. What fun especially Peter who seems to know unlimited songs kept us entertained besides his great jokes which kept us in stitches every late night at the bar side whilst we enjoyed the cocktails and brandies.
Very special thanks to Tony Madeira and John De Silva for joining us all day at NEPTUNES to celebrate Betty's birthday. Tony thanks for the loan of your keyboard (all the bands want to buy it from you).
Tony, it was pleasing to see you dance all evening and confirm it was a great night where you enjoyed dancing after a long time. You wanted me to play and sing more but I felt it would be unfair to the lovely band 'SKY' as they were there to entertain and did a grand job where we all enjoyed the dancing.
Party
time every night! African Acrobatic dancers and African Band
"Vanilla" who Ben jammed with!
Peter Brownhill Looking forward to October
meeting our very good friends, Goa was amazing next stop Zanzibar.
The one
and only Tony Madeira starts the dancing and Benny once again giving us a
little bit of rock n roll! A lot of hangovers tomorrow on our flight back to
London after our fabulous time in Zanzibar
Hi Benny and Betty thank you for the wonderful holiday will miss you and all
the new friends we made in Zanzibar lots of love Hilary and Peter
Betty De Souza So glad you both enjoyed the holiday especially being your
first time in Zanzibar. No doubt there will be another and would love it if you
both joined us again. What a great team we all were!
Special
thanks to Ben for making it such a memorable birthday for me and for my
beautiful Tanzanite ring and pendant. Thanks also to our very special friends
from the UK who made this one of the best holidays ever and can't wait to come
back again to our beautiful island in the sun! The party goes on until the wee
hours!
Mabel Pooran Go Ben go
Did not
bring his electronic sax only guitar and a new travel amp. Borrowed a keyboard
from a good friend here so now our beautiful room looks like a music den!
Mabel Pooran Betty, keep those sunrays at
bay. Them rays are not as friendly as they used to be in our younger days. We
all love your, what you delightfully called, milk bottles
Betty De Souza Thank you Mabel I shall keep
that in mind. I don't sit in the sun anymore just catch the sun when swimming
and walking. I can't believe how we coped when we lived here. This heat is
really something else!
Sandra Almeida Betty, I think you have a lovely
Color. So don't worry be happy. Enjoy your drink!
Betty De Souza Not too sure about the lovely
colour but will definitely take your advice on the rest
