A DRY AND CRISP SUNNY MANILVA ON THURSDAY;

THURSDAY 6th/ NOVEMBER 2014.



I took ‘Scruffy’ for his early morning walk before ‘Reina’ arrived as he was being picked up later in the morning, meanwhile as we are having our usual breakfast we take the cover off ‘Charlie’ and he starts chatting away! ‘Reina’has her large Duvet cover with her and she uses it like a little house as she does feel the cooler air, at the moment ‘Chispa has just arrived and is playing around my feet and trying to get under the Duvet cover with ‘Reina’!

Today it’s bright and crisp with the sun out but over the weekend there is a bit of the wet stuff around, the temperatures are hovering at around the 20/21degs mark for now! This means that we are now into wearing jumpers when we go out, at lunchtime we are walking around to the surgery for our ‘Gripe – Anti-Flu Jabs’ At any moment the ‘Winter Fuel Allowance’ is due into our Spanish bank account, us pensioners need it!

Tomorrow is a ‘Doggy-Free’ day, no doubt ‘Chispa’ will call in at some time, usualy when we get back with shopping, as we are shopping first thing in the morning then at lunchtime I have my second Eye Test at the hospital across in Marbella, on the way back we are going to call into ‘San Pedro De Alcantara’ to go to the Xmas Card shop that we use.

This evening for our supper we are having ‘Calves Liver’ dusted in seasoned flour and seared ‘Pink. on the hot griddle with well cooked English Pork Sausage, crispy Smoked Bacon and sautéed Baby Mushrooms, Onions, Tomato and Potatoes with some Diamond cut Green Beans for colour! See below.


Last night after our supper we channel hopped for a bit and later I found on one of the more obscure channels “Downton Abbey” – four episodes back to back with no commercial breaks – I press the translate button and off we go, the only problem is we do not know where we are up to in the story/plot/series and are not sure of finding it again! Once you are into watching the programme it’s very compelling – last night in one of the episodes there was a fire in one of the ‘Lady’s’ of the house bedrooms and another one of the ‘Lady’s’ had lost her husband in a car crash?! Help?!


Thoughts for the Day; See above.
