A VERY HOT & SUNNY MANILVA ON SUNDAY.

SUNDAY 4^th / JUNE 2017. 

We had a nice lie in this morning after all the excitement of yesterday, we were up just before the church bells started calling the faithful, after freshening up we had breakfast, fresh Orange Juice, ‘Crispy Smoked Bacon Butties’ & mugs of hot tea. We are taking things for the day, catching up with the chores and then relaxing, doing nothing, because we can!

‘Reina’ is due back with us on Monday morning, for her usual five days, next week, no doubt ‘ Chispa’ will be in & out as normal. Brenda has an appointment  down at the surgery with the nurse, first thing in the morning, for her blood tests etc, I will see our Doctor, Natalia, on Wednesday morning, before her appointments, for a quick check-up/review, on Friday morning I will be out on my travels down in Sabinillas for the weekly shopping. No other plans at the moment, watch this space!

The sun was out early and the sky is blue and there is just a little breeze, making it rather pleasant, it’s due to reach 27 degs this afternoon, next week is getting even better, 29/30 degs – 17/19 during the night, last night there was a spectacular red sunset over the village, see below.

For our supper this evening we are having ‘ Grilled Fillet Steaks ‘ cooked on a very hot griddle plate ‘ Med-Rare ‘ – then left to rest, garnished with seared Aspargus Spears, Button Mushrooms & deep-fried Onion Rings, whole  Green Beans and of course twice-cooked ‘ Chips’ –  ‘Bearnaise’ sauce on the side.

Just a quick update on last night’s result as brilliant Real Madrid defeated Juventus to retain the ‘ Champions League ‘ 1-4 at the ‘Millennium Stadium ‘ in Cardiff. Real were unstoppable, Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice. The village went ‘ MAD ‘ !

See above the Blog & pictures of our travels out & about in a very hot ‘ Alhaurin El Grande with our dear friend Joyce ‘ Baby ‘ yesterday.

PS;  On ‘ Castle Radio FM 89.2 & Online on the ‘ WWW’ at the moment the “ Pete Black Retro Road Show “ request show is back on air ‘Live’ from his studio in ‘Puerto de la Duquesa ‘ He has just played for ‘ Sir ‘ Malcolm & ‘ Lady’ Brenda – “ Shine on Me ‘ by Dan Auerbach, a ‘ Helluva ‘ track!!
