WEDNESDAY
29th/ MAY 2013.
We were up
with the birds this morning and shot across to Estepona first; we called into
our bank to see our new Manager, then we had coffee and tostado at a very busy
and efficient café/bar frequented by lots of regulars and served by a very
pleasant and busy waitress in the center of the main shopping area. Brenda then
went off, with her card, to get the cosmetics that she can only get in
Estepona, she returned with no other purchases she tried on some things but
resisted! Meanwhile I went to my barber, Manuel for the full works; trim and
cut, beard trim, shave with a cut throat razor, wash and shampoo. blow-dry and
style and finally a face massage! You come out feeling like a new man!! We then
stopped back at the café/bar for some fresh Orange juice before heading over to
the hospital on the far side of Marbella.
The
Dermatology consultant gave me practically the all clear, my readings and test
were fine, and I had some ‘Cortisone’ injections in my right leg to help clear
up the end of the blood infection, also he prescribed some more creams if
needed – my next appointment for a check up is in October!
It was a
glorious drive back along the N340 coast road as the sun was out, clear blue
skies and just a little breeze, one of the best times of the year down here on
the Costa
del Sol !
We shot back to Sabinillas to call at the charity shop and pick up the two
bedside cabinets before anybody else spotted them, we had marked sold on them
and the owner had marked the price on them, 25euros for the pair! They are now
in Norah’s room looking rather smart and matching the bed furniture. The
picture above shows ‘Playa Paraiso’ just below us this lunchtime – thanks to
the Manilva web-page!
Brenda is
retiring to the roof terrace this afternoon to read and top up her colour ready
for the folks coming in June – 24 days and counting to the big day! They arrive
at Gibraltar on the 19th!
This
evening we are having for supper Minute Steak and chips, and then I will follow
the ‘International Friendlies Football’ on the PC as England
Thought for
the Day; See the picture above.
