SUNDAY 5th / JUNE 2016.
We all had a nice long lie in this morning,
‘Reina’ goes up to bed in her duvet at about 10-00 pm and sleeps all night, in
the morning she comes and joins us on the bed for the last half hour, we then
had a leisurely breakfast of ‘ Campo’ Poached Eggs on Toast with mugs of
steaming tea; it was the time to ‘ burn in ‘ the new oven and after a little
trouble to start with the timer/clock we had ‘ lift off’! ‘Reina’ has now been
collected by Daniela, she’s back with us next week for five days.
We then got this evenings supper on the go ‘
Herb Marinated New Zealand South Island Lamb Cutlets’ seared on the griddle
plate and finished on top of the ‘ Boulangere Potatoes’ this evening as we
christen the oven. Brenda is preparing glazed Carrot Batons with Garden Peas
& Florets of Cauiflower Mornay, lots of Mint Sauce on the side.
Its a ‘at home day’ today taking things
very easy as next week is starting to look busy, by our simple standards, then
for two week we will be out & about on the ‘Costa Del Sol’ Its another very
hot and sunny day down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol’ and the forecast for next
week is looking very good.
Yesterday afternoon/early evening we
watched the ‘ Derby’ from Epsom as the ‘ Aga Khan’s ‘ horse “Harzand “ won the
biggest prize in UK racing 1.325 million pounds! It reminded us about a friend
from North Wales who used to work for ‘H H’ – ‘His Highness ‘ running a chain
of hotels in Kenya, the stories about the lifestyle of the supper rich can’t be
told here!
At the same time we found that, unusually, over on ‘ITV’ they were
showing the Final of the Ladies Tennis at the ‘French Open’ in Paris; Spain’s Garbine
Muguruza beat world number on Serena Williams in straight sets to win her first
‘ Grand Slam’ Today they are showing the Men’s Final between Andy Murray &
Novak Djokovic.
After supper last night we found a film to
watch “ The Counselor “ from 2013 – a crime thriller directed by Ridley Scott,
its the story of the eponymous ‘ Counseelor’ who gets in over his head in a
drug deal down in the Mexico/Texas border, played by Michael Fassbender,
Penelope Cruz is his wife, Javier Bardem ( Penelope’s husband in real life!) is
a drunken entrepreneur with a crazy pathological/sociopath girlfriend played by
Cameron Diaz & Brad Pitt is a womanizing, charismatic middleman! Bardem is
shot in the head by a cartel gang member, Penelope is kidnapped and ends up ‘ Headless’
dumped in a landfill after a ‘Snuff’ film is made of her killing and sent to
Fassbender driving him crazy, there’s more as Brad Pitts character is killed in
London by having a ‘ Bolito’ ( a devise
that gradually strangles and decapitates
) wrapped around his neck! It turns out the Cameron Diaz is behind all the
killings as she finally gets her hands on all the money!!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
