WEDNESDAY 4th/
FEBRUARY 2015.
This
morning there was no lie in, we had our usual breakfast and then shot down to
Sabinillas as Brenda had an appointment at her hairdressers for a cut &
blow dry, we also picked up some light bulbs from the ‘Ferraterias’ then a
birthday card, for Lumy at Bar Rojas, and a newspaper (Daily Mail – sorry
Josie!) before calling into the bank where it all started to go wrong!
It turned
out that the whole Spanish banking system online has crashed! This meant that
the transfer between our accounts could not be processed and the cash machine
outside which they told me was working took my two attempts for cash out of our
account but did not produce any cash!!
I retired
to the café in the square opposite the hairdressers for a sausage butty and mug
of steaming tea; this morning its very cold with a stiff breeze, that had came
overnight, this means that the overall max temperatures has dropped to 10degs,
6degs down from yesterday! The sky is blue and the sun is out so we can’t complain,
it’s the coldest day since we arrived here on the ‘Costa Del Sol ’ all those years ago! It’s like
this for the next few days up to the weekend.
As we got
back to the house ‘Chispa’ came charging up the street to welcome us home, she
is now playing around the house after we took her for a short walk. ‘Reina’ is
back tomorrow and then ‘Scruffy’ is with us on Saturday & Sunday.
Meanwhile
over in Skelton ‘ Up North’! - the ‘Queen’ has settled back into her official
residence with her ‘Consort’ and is busy at the moment with lots of research on
her family history using the ‘Ancestry’ page, outside the snow has fallen as
you can see in the picture below taken this morning.
This
evening for our supper we are having the rest of last nights Chicken Curry before
we settle down to find something to watch after the news, sport and weather
updates, last night we just channel hopped so hopefully we will have more luck
this evening.
Thoughts
for the Day; See above.
