A VERY WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON THURSDAY.

THURSDAY 4^th/ JANUARY 2018.

I was up early again this morning to see ‘ Reina’ back with us for the day, we then all had a little lie in before breakfast, ‘Toasted Sausage Butties’ smothered in ‘HP’ Brown Sauce, open, as usual for Brenda, with mugs of steaming tea. We then got the shopping list ready for tomorrow morning, when I’m out on my travels down in Sabinillas for the weekly shopping.

Sadly it looks like I will have to go down on the bus, again, as the car problem has hit us again! The noise was the front wheel bearings, but there is also a problem, now, with the radiator, all this is the result of the bad bump I had earlier in the year! So we are waiting to hear when the car will be ready, fingers crossed later today, but we can’t be sure, we of course need the car on Sunday, when we are going out for lunch with our friend, Joyce ( Baby) Watch this space.

We have the start of another glorious day down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol’ this morning, the sun was out early and the sky is already bright blue, there is just a little breeze, by lunchtime it’s forecast to reach the heady heights of 22/23 degs+!  Tomorrow is now forecast to be dry but colder, as the ‘Atlantic’ front comes in, on Saturday it’s going to be a lot cooler with the threat of some of the wet stuff, then on Sunday and next week it’s keeping cold, with rain on some days, watch this space.

This evening for our supper we are having savoury ‘Beef Burgers’ topped with crispy Smoked Back Bacon, with a fry-up of the left-over vegetables, from last night and the rest of Brenda’s famous Mashed Potato. Friday is ‘ Fish Night’ & Saturday ‘ Steak Night’ !!

Tomorrow afternoon we are going along to ‘Bar Pedreta’ for the wedding reception celebrations of James & Michala, after they get married in Gibraltar in the morning. In the evening it’s the ‘ Three Kings’ parade, which is now taking place on the far side of the village, depending on the weather!

After supper last night we channel hopped and watched nothing in particular.

Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
