SUNNY AND WARM MANILVA ON SUNDAY;

SUNDAY 3rd/ NOVEMBER 2013.



This morning after our tea and toast we got the Sunday Roast on the go; ‘Roast Crown of Spanish Turkey’ with a savory mixed herb stuffing, Pigs in Blankets and a deep-pan finger licking gravy! Brenda went to town on her vegetables with Cauliflower florets in a four-cheese sauce, glazed Carrot batons, roasted Parsnip wedges in local Honey, Garden Peas and Brussels Sprouts with Smoked Bacon sippits,Baby New Potatoes and of course my famous Goose Fat Roast potatoes ! Hopefully Man and Anna are joining us for our pre-Xmas dinner!!

We then showered and went for a short walk with dog around the new park, today is a little overcast but still warm, as forecast, on the way back we called into Bar Rojas for a cool drink; in one of the house’s below the bar and outside in the street there was a lost of locals gathered, this means only one thing, somebody has died! It turned out that it was 90 year old lady that we knew; she died last night and is being buried this evening at 5-00pm! They don’t hang around here. the village ‘Padre’ came past later and I asked him if the church will be ready for Xmas, he said it’s possible which is a surprise as there still seams a lot of work to finish?!

At the moment on the TV it’s the Grand Prix from the spectacular setting of the ‘Yas Marina’ in Abu Dhabi; surprise, surprise Vettel is leading again! He has just won!! Later I will watch Everton as they host Tottenham at Goodison; Brenda is going to watch the tennis, defending Champion David Ferrer defeated World number one Rafael Nadel to set up a final meeting with Novak Djokovic at the ‘Paris Masters’ The world number four beat his Spanish rival 6-3 7-5 for the first time in10 meetings!Djokovic won 7-5 7-5! 

Everton drew with Spurs 0-0 but I can't print what Bib Bri is calling the referee,its something to do with his parents and also gynaecological !!


Over the weekend we have caught a couple of the late films; “ Die Hard ” from 1988, the original which spawned four sequels, starring of course Bruce Willis, Alan Rickman as the baddie and Bonnis Bedella,also last night it was a Harrison Ford – ‘ Indiana Jones’ romp! This evening after supper we will watch the late news and weather and then the football high-lights.


Thought for the Day; See above.
