Well Nikita did call in and he has got the mouse working instead of the touch pad but the keyboard requires major surgery; he is going to take the PC away and update the Microsoft hardware, increase the memory, improve the Anti-Virus and open and clean the keyboard!
The Feria Queens Parade came along Calle Mar led by the ‘ Roman Chi Chi Pom Band ’in their new costumes and Ringo ( Paco ) in a clowns outfit ! Behind were all the animal characters and then the floats; each float has a Queen which are chosen in age categories, they are pulled by 4x4s and the music is loud and the atmosphere builds up as they throw streamers and confetti in large amounts ! At the end an army of street cleaners brush up in front of the machine. We were sat outside Bar Rojas under the Sonbrajo to take in the evening’s action, at lunchtime Anna had joined us and then Mano after work as we caught up with all the news and had some Tapas, Brenda had the ‘Russian Salad’ which Lumy had just made; all the Bars make it and each has its own version, Lumy’s is very creamy, others are more chunky! Just before the evening kicked off a English lady and her two sons,on holiday,were looking for somewhere to eat so we recommended Bar Rojas and the Gallo Frito and Patatas Fritas ! We then had a nice chat with Alison,Jasper and Findlay,who where from Nottingham,later we had supper as the bar filled up with families before they go down to the Fair Ground later; this year the Feria is only on for four days and is not as large as normal,on Sunday at midnight there is free concert with a large group which will go on till the wee small hours. Monday is a National Bank Holiday in
