MANILVA START OF THE WEEKEND.


FRIDAY 20th MAY 2011.

The weather is even better today so after our tea and toast we walked around to the local market with Cheta to pick up some fresh fruit and vegetables; the local Cherries are just right as is the Asparagus, we then called into the surgery to arrange the round of hospital appointments for Brenda and also to get the nurse next week to check her broken toe and rebandage it. When we got back to the house Andy called in as I have a couple of technical problems on the PCs which he soon fixed. Brenda then retired to the roof terrace and I’m reading a good book, in the early evening sunshine we had our first drink of the day in the chill out room and listened to some music; at the moment I have been using Spotify to select various artists and albums to play, I don’t bother to download, but they are starting to control what you can listen to so I have gone back to Musicovery Interactive Web Radio for our music. It is a live interactive radio station on which you can select from over twenty genres,ie Blues, going back to the fifties and up to date with the choice of four styles,ie Energetic ! At the same time I have been working on my online Radio station on Jango which will be called “ Canned Heat Radio ”
In the evening we had a fish supper, Salmon Fillets and Crab Claws and then went up to Bar Rojas as we had acquired some vouchers from the Antonia party and had the credit to use ! As we took in the late evening air the last of the election car rallies passed us a couple of times making the most of it as on Saturday they are not allowed by law to do any canvassing; we met a nice English couple from Portsmouth, David and Hillary Gillians, who have a town house at the lower end of the village, we sat and talked and ended up falling back into the house late !


Thought for the Day;


Life isn’t about the number of breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away.
