FRIDAY 3rd/ NOVEMBER 2017.
I was up early this morning and after a
quick freshen up I shot off on my travels down to Sabinillas for the weekly
shopping, as the sun was coming up above the Mediterranean, my first port of
call was our Bank to get some cash from the machine, the local Bank’s machine
in ‘Calle Mar’ was not working, last night, I missed my tea & toast at ‘
Itzabar’ as it was closed for holidays, I did the main shop in ‘ Mercadona’ and
then walked along to the ‘ English Bookshop’ for the local newspapers & a
birthday card, we didn’t need any flowers or plants from the market so I called
into ‘ Super Sol’ for the ‘ English’ essentials before shooting back up the
hill, through the bare vine fields.
First thing this afternoon we have our appointments
down at the local surgery for our ‘ Gripe- Anti-Flu Jabs’ – the Council have
just announced that they are refurbishing/roofing, installing new windows &
entrance etc, over the next few months.
We have a extra booking in ‘ Doggy World
Heaven’ tomorrow evening when ‘ Scruffy’ is joining us, it’s Rose’s 70th
birthday and she is going out for dinner with Adrian & friends.
This morning as I was going down to
Sabinillas it was still a little cloudy & overcast, with a slight breeze,
but still no sign of the forecasted ‘ wet stuff’- yesterday stayed dry &
sunny, it’s showing rain for tomorrow, then on Sunday the sun returns and next
week is looking warm & sunny hovering on the low 20s, a little cooler at
night 13/15 degs, nearly time for the light duvet, watch this space.
See below a picture taken from the Pier
Head, Liverpool, across the River Mersey, showing the ‘Wirral’ and on the
horizon the Welsh mountains and on the right the ‘ Great Orme’ above Llandudno,
jutting out into the Irish Sea.
For our supper this evening we are having ‘Fish’
n Chips’ with Mushy Peas and twice-cooked ‘ Frits’ – using Fillets of Hake
coated in a ‘ Cruzecampo’ Beer Batter, with Homemade ‘ Tartar’ sauce on the
side with lots of Lemon wedges. Tomorrow evening it’s ‘ Steak Night’ and then
on Sunday we are roasting a Leg of Lamb, as I forgot to pick up a fresh Chicken
this morning!
We are taking things very easy over the
weekend, relaxing, doing nothing, because we can!
