WEDNESDAY 14th / SEPTEMBER 2016.
I was up first this morning to see little
Princess ‘ Reina’ back with us for the day, she’s now a swimming champion , as
well as ‘ Miss Junior Estepona’ - as the
other day she ‘ventured’ into the sea for the first time and was brilliant! At
the moment she is relaxing upstairs on her duvet! ‘Chispa’ who will call in
later will not be impressed!!
After showing we had breakfast, ‘Smoked
Bacon Butties’ with mugs of steaming tea before getting the day on the go,
Brenda is pottering and I’m up in the office/studio on the WWW.
We have just spoken via ‘ Facebook Messenger’
with Michelle, our very dear friend, Carols youngest daughter, she has booked
to come over at Xmas to an apartment complex just past Estepona for two weeks
with Matt and their two children Hollie ( 9) & Charlie (7)!! They are
flying into Gibraltar on Xmas Eve and are here for two weeks! We have just
spoken to Michelle and are looking forward to seeing her and Matt and meeting their
children, it’s going to make this Xmas rather special, to say the least ( 14
weeks & counting) !
Today there has been a dramatic and un-forecast
change in the weather, yesterday evening as around 6-00pm we had a severe rain
storm, it was a lot cooler over night and this morning it’s a little overcast
but dry at the moment, the rest of Spain is covered in heavy rain, winds etc, the
‘ Costa Del Sol’ as usual is missing the worst of the weather, we will check
later to see the forecast for the rest of the week and over the weekend, watch
this space. See the picture below of the road down to Sabinillas this morning.
Meanwhile over in the UK they are having thunder, lighting, rain storms & tornadoes after yesterdays hottest September day on record for over a hundred years 34degs - see below the picture of the waterfront in Liverpool this morning.
For our supper this evening we are having ‘
Chicken Schnitzels’ – ‘Escalope of local Chicken Breast’ coated in breadcrumbs
and shallow fried in foaming Lime Butter, finely sliced Green Beans & twice
cooked ‘ Frits’ on the side, the ‘ Schnitzels’ resting on a pool of a savoury ‘Tomato
Gazpacho Salsa’!
Last night after supper we settled down to
watch the final episode of ‘ One of Us’ on BBC TV, It didn’t disappoint, it was
gripping as the true story was revealed, two family’s both with hidden secrets,
a brother marrying his sister, a wife who was a serial ‘lady about town’ – another wife who took
revenge and spilled all the beans, the lady detective ‘fixing up’ the drug
dealer, who she had sold drugs too, as a Peodphile, she then set off on a plane
to get her sick daughter an operation, her sympathetic sergeant letting her go,
the main character was the killer that had cut the throats of the brother/sister
that got married along with their baby! Finally it showed a young brother and
sister in one of the family’s who were also lovers, when they were young!! All
set in the lonely Highlands of Scotland – lots of long cold night with nothing
else to do, are you following ?!
This evening its ‘ The Great British Bake Off
’ which is also turning out to be rather dramatic as the next series has been pinched
by ‘Channel 4’ - watch this space.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
