A WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON WEDNESDAY;

WEDNESDAY 12th/ APRIL 2017.



























I was up early this morning to see ‘ Reina’ back with us for the day, we then went back to bed for a little lie in before the gas bottle delivery man came calling, after our normal light breakfast of toast & tea we got the small shopping list ready for tomorrow morning, I shot along to the local bank in ‘Calle Mar’ for some cash from the machine.

It’s another glorious day down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol ‘ – the sun was out early and the sky is bright blue with no clouds, there is no breeze so it’s a perfect day, warm & sunny, by lunchtime it’s due to teach 23/24degs, the rest of the week is staying the same but with the possibility of some clouds and a little cooler, next week it’s more of the same, warm & sunny, watch this space.


See below a ‘ Drone ‘ picture of the Bay of Llandudno;






The ‘ Semana Santa’ celebrations continue with the procession of ‘ Jesus Nazareno - Jesus of Nazareth ‘ on Thursday evening, it arrives late ( 12-midnight ) in Calle Mar, it’s the brotherhood that I’m a member of, then on Friday evening at 7-00pm it’s the turn of the procession of ‘ Del Santo Entierro Y Ntra.Sra.De Los Dolores’ – which has as well as the ‘Tronos’ the ladies of the village in their finest Black Court Dresses with a flowing veil of Black Lace/Silk, a ‘Mantilla’ hanging from a comb ‘ a Peineta’ with their ceremonial staffs. Watch out for all the pictures.


See the  ‘ Sample’ picture below;






For this evenings supper we are having ‘ Grilled Gammon Steaks ‘ topped with seared Pineapple & ‘ Campo Fried Eggs’ – Garden Peas and of course twice-cooked ‘ Chips’ – tomorrow it’s going to be ‘Homemade Burgers ‘ with all the trimmings; on Good Friday I’m making my famous ‘ Fish Pie ‘ using Hake, Cod, Salmon, Prawns & Mussels topped with Brenda’s famous Mashed Potato, Saturday will be ‘ Steak Night’ and then on Easter Sunday we are having a ‘Roast Chicken’ from the ‘Rotisserie ‘ in Calle Mar.

Last night after supper we channel hopped and watched the 50th series over 25 years of “ Later Live ... With Jools Holland “ – it featured music from Kasabian,  Goldfrapp, Spoon & Anderson Paak. – as usual an eclectic mix of sounds and style.
