DAY 7 COUNTDOWN TO THE GREAT ESCAPE.

Friday 26th March 2010.

For the next few days over the weekend and into next week the weather forecast is a lot better; no rain or wind just a little cloudy with blue skies and warm sun, the storm has missed us again and is heading through Portugal, Northern Spain, France and across to the UK ! This morning down in Tarifa it was gorgeous as we went for the weekend shopping and then on to the clinic, the doctor said that Brenda’s wound was very much improved; she is still going everyday to have the dressing changed for about another week so we will have to call into our clinic in Manilva to arrange things past next Thursday, if required.

This evening we are having the small Dab Soles for dinner as they had just come onto the fish market; over the weekend on Saturday we going to have Steak and Frits and for Sunday lunch it is Loin of Pork; on the phone to Mano and Anna the other day, Anna suggested that she would buy a Leg Of Lamb for Easter Sunday, our first back in Manilva as they have missed our Sunday roasts over the last year ! It will take us a little while to get back into our routine in the house as we have grown accustomed to the villa especially the space; when we have people around to eat in Manilva our table when we have ten around it means that we have to open the front doors and the person at the end of the table is out on the street !

Last night we caught up with Tim and Thea over in Colwyn Bay,Tim was away on a international schools conference over in Berlin for the week so his daughter Jo answered the phone and we caught up with all her news; she is going to university in Liverpool after her gap year and is really looking forward to moving to the halls of residence in September, Every Sunday Brenda calls Jenny to see how she is and at the same time catch up with her and Norah’s news over in England,

Thought for the Day;

Since it’s the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
