A EVEN HOTTER SUNNY MANILVA ON WEDNESDAY;

WEDNESDAY 8th / JUNE 2016.


















We were both up early this morning and after ‘ Reina’ was dropped off for the day, this afternoon ‘ Scruffy’ is back with us for the rest of the day,we grabbed a quick cup of tea and a piece of toast before heading off to Marbella along the coast road to go to ‘ La Cañada ‘ the large shopping mall behind the town; Brenda hit ‘ C & A’ and soon found two bright coloured tee shirts, a white shirt top and two pairs of trousers, white & yellow, meanwhile I spotted a very nice purple checked short sleeved shirt, we then went along to ‘ M & S ‘ where I was helped by the Manager and found a very nice pair of light grey ‘ Chinos’ and a rather good short sleeved white & blur spotted shirt!

It was then time to head off back along the coast road past a sparkling ‘Mediterranean’ towards sunny Manilva, only one problem, behind Estepona, where the two main roads join, there had just been an accident with a large lorry jack-knifing into the central crash barrier blocking all the road! We were caught in a very large tail-back for over 1 and a half hours!!

Today its even hotter but its very close with a sea mist, inland the temperatures are reaching 39/40 degs, down here on the coast its just 30 degs, over the next few days and into the weekend its going to warmer and next week’s forecast is looking good with more of the same. See the picture below of the Albert Dock in Liverpool with the local ‘tea truck’!







For this evening supper we are keeping things simple “ Cold York Ham ‘ with ‘ Campo’ fried Eggs and some twice-cooked ‘ Frits’- tomorrow night we have some nice ‘Minutes Steak’- Fish on Friday & Steak on Saturday, Sunday its TBC.

I now have ready my next three playlists for my Radio show on ‘ Castle Radio FM 89.2 & Online on the WWW’ up to the end of June, listen between 11-00 am to 1-00 pm every Saturday to ‘ Sir Malcolm’s Classic Session’ – keep the requests coming in!








Tomorrow afternoon Brenda has another appointment at the ‘  Physiotherapist ‘ for a good massage session on her feet and legs, then in the early evening Mario Jnr. is back with us for his last ‘English’ conversation class as the Exam is on Friday over in Malaga, over last weekend his Teen Basket Ball Team won the Regional Championship, the Senior Team are also Champions and this year the small Junior Team are also the Champions for the first time!!! Manilva rules the local ‘Basket Ball World’ – Mario’s dad, Mario our local Councillor, happens to be the President of the ‘Manilva Basket Ball League’ this year.



We are having a ‘Quiz’ afternoon/ evening and then after supper we will find something to watch.
