ANOTHER WARM & SUNNY START TO WEEK HERE IN SUNNY MANILVA.

MONDAY 30th/ OCTOBER 2017.






























I was up first to welcome back little princess ‘ Reina’ for the day, she shot into her duvet and we then took ‘ Charlie & Lolo’ for their first walk of the day, they had both let us know that it was time to go out, ‘ Charlie ‘ jumped on the bed and ‘Lolo’ barked, we then went for our walk around the ‘Plaza de la Vendimia ‘ before coming back for our breakfast, you’ve guessed, ‘ Crispy Smoked Bacon Butties’ – open on brown for Brenda, with mugs of strong tea, to get the week ahead on the go, in the right direction!

In ‘ Doggy World Heaven ‘ ‘Reina’ is with us for the next 3 days, the same next week, both ‘Lolo & Charlie’ are due to be collected sometime tomorrow, ‘Charlie’ is back in December for 1 night and then for a week over ‘Xmas’







We have another glorious day ahead down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol ‘ – the sun was out early and the sky is already bright blue, it’s clear and settled, with no breeze, by lunchtime it will be in the mid 20s, yesterday ended up very hot and sunny, the wet stuff is still due to hit us over the next few days, but by the weekend it will be back to normal for the time of the year, watch this space.

As we were getting ourselves sorted this morning we were listening, via the ‘internet’ to our favourite ‘ Castle Radio FM ‘ broadcasting ‘ live ‘ from ‘Castillo de la Duquesa’ with the  ‘Breakfast Show ‘ with Andrew Charles. He announced that the station is moving, more news to come, “ Onwards & Upwards “ as I say! So I sent in a request for ‘ Sir’ Malcolm & ‘Lady ‘ Brenda, which he played, ( Beth Hart!) 







I also offered, again, to bring back my show, produced and broadcast ‘ live ‘ from my office/studio her in the house, it sounds like I’m in the future plans, so I could be back with my show “ Sir Malcolm’s Classic Saturday Session “ which you can listen to on the ‘ WWW Internet ‘ – “ Canada, Australia, UK & Europe “ – are you ready?!  Watch this space.




















The menus for the week are starting to take shape; this evening we are having ‘ Cold Roast Top Side of Beef’ with a fry-up of all the leftover vegetables & potatoes, on Tuesday it’s going to be ‘Calves Liver & Bacon ‘ in a Onion Gravy, then on Wednesday I’m making my famous ‘ Beef Curry’ with Brenda’s equally famous ‘ Basmati Rice’! The rest of the week and over the weekend is still in the planning stages, watch this space.

Just a quick update on the sports results from over the weekend; last night we watched, as we were having supper, the ‘ Grand Prix of Mexico ‘ as Lewis Hamilton won his 4th ‘World Championship ‘ – meanwhile over here in ‘ La Liga’ Girona beat Real Madrid 2-1 for the first time in their history, Barcelona won 0-2 in Bilbao, over in the ‘ Premier League’ Everton lost, again, 2-0, Manchester City won 2-3 and Liverpool won 3-0, for a change! 


We will catch up with all the programmes that we have missed over the weekend, later, on the ‘BBC I PAD & ITV Hub’ – then channel hop on the new system, we are going to sign up for the year, as there is so much to watch and the reception is very good, Lee & Daniela offered to pick up our ‘Bacardi & Bombay Sapphire Gin’ from Gibraltar on their way home from work, the cost is very low, compared with here in Spain!





















Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
