MONDAY 12th FEBRUARY 2018.
We managed a little lie in this morning, ‘
Chico’ slept across the foot of the bed and I had to wake him up this morning,
after freshening up we took him out for his first walk of the day, the ‘
Contractors’ workmen have started clearing/preparation work etc, on the ‘ Phase
2 ‘ of the redevelopment of Calle Mar ‘ – tomorrow morning is when the ‘ JCBs ‘
are due to move in, when we returned we had our normal ‘ light’ breakfast of ‘
Weetabix’ toast & tea, we then planned the coming week’s menus, watch this
space.
The morning has started grey &
overcast, with black clouds on the horizon, not forecasted, there is a slight
breeze making it ‘ crisp’ & cold, it looks like it could rain later, the
temperatures are hovering on the 15 degs mark, for now, the rest of the week up
to Saturday is looking dry & settled going up to 18 degs+ - then on Sunday
it’s now forecasting more of the wet stuff, going colder again, next week is
going to be cold and wet, watch this space.
This evening for our supper we are having ‘
Cold-Cuts’ of ‘Steak & Pork’- both the Rib-Eye steaks and Pork Chops were
very large, so I will carve slices of the left-over meat, we are also having
the rest of the selection of local fresh vegetables and the ‘Pommes Lyonnaise’
On Tuesday it’s going to be ‘ Grilled Gammon Steak ‘ with all the trimmings
along with ‘ Crepes’ for our dessert as it’s ‘ Shove Tuesday’! For our ‘
Valentine’s Day’ supper we are having ‘ Medallions of Pork Fillet’ with all the
trimmings, on Thursday it’s ‘ find something in the fridge day’ – as usual on
Friday it’s ‘Fish Night’ before our ‘ Steal Night’ on Saturday, Sunday is still
‘TBC’ – watch this space.
See below some pictures of Colwyn Bay,
North Wales, taken over the weekend, one showing a ‘ drone ‘ picture of the old
Pier, the work at the moment is taking place inside, of dismantling the saveable
parts, we are arranging a ‘ catch-up ‘ with Tim & Thea, up in sunny Mojacar
later to find out their plans for next few months before they return home to
Old Colwyn!
Last night after supper we watched the final
episode of “ McMafia “ – a flawed but gripping finale to a ‘ Godfather-esque’
thriller, with more deaths, deal and double-crossing, this time with the hero involved
in some of the shooting! It all took place in Moscow, as our hero was thrown in jail before
escaping, with a spectacular chase through old underground ‘ Metro ‘ tunnels – reminiscent of ‘ The Third
Man’ or the ‘Bourne’ films ?!
Then it was back to business as usual as
the hero, Alex, made contact with the new ‘Russian Mafia’ elite, offering them
a $300bn a year deal, the old Russian gangsters gang were all shot, as Vadim,
with a bullet in the gut, was also, he was tracked down to a ‘safe-house’ where
our hero finds him – did he have the guts to shoot him, after a quick think, he
did! Then ‘Alex’ out-manoeuvred the Mexican mafia boss, out of the main deal, and
at the same time he callously declined to take a call from his girl friend as
she reached out for reconciliation, some loose ends, were left dangling, but
with a tense, twisting climax, could there be another series, watch this space!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
