THURSDAY 28th / APRIL 2016.
Another early rise this morning as Mano was
picking me up to go to the garage to see how the car work was going on, ’Reina’ ( Miss Estepona ) was seen back for the day by Brenda, later ' Chispa' ( Miss Manilva ! ) called in to see us, the new radio is being fitted and the new
front exhaust part is going on this morning, all the small jobs have been done
and I’m collecting the car this afternoon, we then shot down to Sabinillas as Mano needed to check the oil & water in
his car, I shot across to our bank for some cash to pay the garage bill, very reasonable,
on the way back we called into the ‘ Road Fund Tax’ office, in the village next
to the police station, to check out the paperwork etc, the transfer documents
will ‘kick in’ this years ‘Tax’ - so we are all up to date, for now! In June
Pedro is taking the car for its ‘ITV – MOT’ which is due, he offers the service
( Cheap!) and if there is a problem he can then sort it out .Watch this space.
Overnight a little breeze has come along,
but its still very warm & sunny, it is has also changed the forecast as the
threatened rain ( Artic Storm ) has moved on over the next few days, this means
that we now have more settled weather over the weekend and into next week.
Last night we had a ‘Skype’ video call from
Jack & Lyn over in Melbourne, it was early morning there ( 9 hours ahead!) –
they have managed to book on the same flights as Norah & Jenny, from
Manchester to Gibraltar, which is very good news, the bookings at the ‘ Manilva
Green Aparthotel’ have been confirmed and the hire car is arranged! Watch this
space for the 13th June!!
For our supper this evening we are having
the rest of the ‘ Braised Steak, Mushroom & Onion Casserole’ which I’m
adding some grilled ‘English Pork Sausages & Gammon’ – I will then pop it
into the oven and top it with some rashers of crispy ‘Smoked Bacon’! On Friday
we are having ‘Grilled Hake Fillets a la Meuniere’ and then on Saturday it our
usual ‘ Steak Night’ – Sunday is going to be ‘ Escalope’s of Turkey Breast.
This evening after supper we will settle
down to watch the final special 90 minute episode of ‘ Line of Duty’ - which promises
to be rather gripping and exciting, it has over 5 million viewers and tonight
we find out all about the loose ends, suspicions, allegations, murder, bluffs
and no doubt more shocks!! Watch this space.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
