A CRISP AND SUNNY MANILVA ON THURSDAY;

THURSDAY 11^th/ DECEMBER 2014.

I was up with the ‘lark’s this morning, well some sort of small ‘birds’ in the ‘Bougainville around the corner! Little princess ‘Reina’ was due early for the day and immediately shot up into her duvet on our bed; we had a little turn-over lie in before our breakfast.

After shaving & showering, Brenda had hers yesterday morning, we shot out with ‘Reina’ and ‘Chispa’to go along to the chemists for some tablets for me and then down to the butchers for something for tonight’s supper; so we are having some lovely fresh, healthy ‘Calves Liver’ with English Pork Sausages, crispy Smoked Bacon, sautéed Onions and Potatoes (Baked & cut thick!) with finely sliced Green Beans.

The weather today is as forecast with clear blue skies and the sun out, it’s a little crisp and only reaching 16degs today, we can’t complain! Over the weekend by Sunday there could be a little bit of the wet stuff around and its getting a little colder even for December.

We have now finalized all our bookings in ‘Doggy World Heaven’ over the Xmas period; this weekend we have ‘Scruffy’ on a three day sleep over from Friday and ‘Reina’ is here for a Saturday night sleep over; then next week ‘Reina’ is with us on Tuesday, Thursday & Friday while ‘Scruffy’ is with us on Wednesday & Thursday before he joins us for his ‘Xmas holiday’ a week on Sunday for 7 nights!

The following week (Christmas) ‘Reina’ is here on the Tuesday and then Christmas Day for a short while, she is also coming to us for New Years Eve night as Daniela has a ‘Gig’ singing in one of the bars in Duquesa Marina!

Yesterday we received a ‘Surrealist’ Xmas post card from the ‘Queen and her Consort’ from up north in Skelton, it’s in the ‘Denasty’ style?! - and is now on the peg board in my office. Thanks!!

Tomorrow morning we have one of our big shopping days as we are going to the ‘Chinese Bazaar’ then ‘Mercadona’ before the ‘English Butchers’ in Duquesa and then shooting along to ‘Iceland’ in Sotogrande, on the way back we will call into ‘Super Sol’!!

This evening after supper we will catch up with all the news, sport and weather forecasts before channel hopping.

Thoughts for the Day; See above.
