THURSDAY 16th/APRIL
2015.
I was up
early again this morning as ‘Reina’ was due first thing, I then shot back
upstairs with her and she got under her duvet I got under mine! The ‘Child
Bride’ was tucked up as snug as a bug in a rug! It’s grey and overcast but the sun is due to
brake through by lunchtime and we will be back to normal in sunny Manilva,over
the weekend its staying warm and sunny and the forecast for next week is more
of the same and getting hotter.
After our
regular breakfast I shot back up to the office to type & post the Blog and
Brenda is having a lazy morning pampering her self, she’s shampooing her hair
etc. It’s an official at home day taking things easy and relaxing, later we
will go for a walk with ‘Reina’ and Chispa’
For our supper
this evening after last night’s ‘Calves Liver Extravaganza’ we are having 'Campo Eggs' ‘Omelet’s’ Brenda is having Cheese and I’m having Mushroom with a Baked Potato
and Tomato Salad on the side. See the picture below;
Tomorrow
morning we are out once again early as Brenda has her appointment at the
surgery to renew her prescriptions, Emilo, the village Doctor & Deputy
Mayor, rang Sally Ann on Monday afternoon after she had put in the complaint
about Brenda’s treatment by the receptionist, we are still waiting to hear from
the proper authority or him with an apology at least?! Watch this space.
We are then
carrying on down for a shopping adventure as we calling into the retail Fruit
& Vegetable market first, then the ‘English Bookshop’ for the papers and
some cards before our main shop at ‘Mercadona’ then dropping down into Puerto
Duquesa to call into the ‘English Butchers’ for some more Goose Fat and other
essentials.
Next we are
going along the coast to ‘Pueblo Nuevo Guadiaro’ for some retail shopping at Iceland,
at the same time we are going into ‘Anglo Wines’ to buy a nice bottle of Pink
Champagne to go into the wine cellar for my 70th birthday
celebrations in September!
Friday is
the Chef’s night off so he has given the staff the night off also and is taking
then out for an ‘Executive Fish Supper’ and then a ‘Night Club’ – well actually
we are going to pick up some Fish Chips & Peas ( Tim’s Fish & Chip
Shop) and eat them from the paper before going to ‘The Place’ upstairs in
Duquesa Marina were Daniela is singing, that is if she makes it back from
London in time as she has been over in the UK working! No expenses spared with
the hard working staff!!
Before this
all takes place we have been invited by our friend, Araceli to go to a
video/picture presentation of the ‘ Manilva en el Recuerdo’ web page taking
place in the ‘Centro de Interpretacion Vinas de Manilva’ theater; it’s a
Council sponsored page on Facebook showing old pictures of the village and
people, I used one of the pictures fairly recently on the Blog to show ‘Calle
San Vicente’ many years ago when it was just a dirt track and our house was not
built! Drinks & Nibbles are being served also.
So we have
an exciting, by our standards, start to the weekend down here on the ‘Costa Del Sol ’ in sunny Manilva.
