A WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON SATURDAY.

SATURDAY 30th/ DECEMBER 2017.



































We had a nice lie in this morning as the village is very quiet, no church bells, yet, no children going to school, no deliveries down our street, no traffic and no neighbours chatting, so far! After sorting ourselves out we had our normal breakfast of fresh fruit, toast & tea. We are taking things very easy today, Brenda is on one of her ‘ ing’ days – washing, drying, cleaning, watering etc and I’m up in the office/studio on the ‘ WWW’ catch’ing’ up with the ‘E-Mails, Facebook Messages, Skype, the Newspapers, BBC News etc!

It’s another glorious day down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol ‘ – the sun was out early and the sky has cleared, there is a very light breeze so It’s warm on the sunny side of the street, very pleasant for the time of the year, 19/20 degs+ by lunchtime, tomorrow is the same but a little cooler, on Monday ‘ New Years Day 2018 ‘ it’s going to be warmer for the start of the week, sadly by Friday the forecast is for some of the wet stuff to return, going cold by next Saturday, watch this space.


See the picture taken earlier this morning showing the Bay of Colwyn looking towards Penmaen Head and on to Rhyl, North Wales.












At lunchtime we went ups to ' Bar Rojas' for a nice cool drink sat in the very warm sunshine, Mano came along and joined us, we had not seen him for 4/5 weeks!


This evening for our supper we are having a large ‘ Entrecote Steak ‘ cooked on a very hot griddle-plate ‘ Med-Rare ‘ and then left to rest, before carving it into fingers’ French Style’ – garnished with seared Asparagus Spears & Button Mushrooms and accompanied with ‘Bearnaise’ sauce, whole Baby French Green Beans and of course twice-cooked ‘ Chips’










On the sports front the weekend over in the ‘Premier League’ Everton have the long journey down to Bournemouth, Liverpool welcome Leicester City and Manchester City are going down the M1 to play Crystal Palace, no football over here in ‘ La Liga’ as they have a seasonal break, this afternoon we will be watching the ‘ National Hunt Racing ‘ from Newbury, Haydock Park & Tauton!



This evening we will channel hop and try to find something to watch, the ‘Xmas’ programmes on the main terrestrial channels are not good, the old classic films have kept us going! Watch this space.























Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
