TUESDAY 5th/ JUNE 2018.
I was up early this morning to see ‘ Reina’
back with us for the day, she shot into her duvet, as usual, ‘Paddy’ eventually
spent the night on our bed, he tried his ‘night’ bed and then his ‘day’ bed
first, he’s starting to settle into our routine, we have been out on our
regular walks, he is a real character and very good company, he follows me
around and when I’m on the ‘ WWW ‘ he likes to sit on my knee as I type the
Blog, he is starting to eat a little and gets on with little princess ‘Reina’
and ‘ Chispa’ when she comes calling, yesterday we bumped into her when we were
out for one of our walks, they look like brother & sister!
See below ‘ Paddy ‘ this morning on his
favourite settee!
After freshening up we went out with ‘Paddy’
for his first walk of the day, we went down to our local Butchers in ‘Calle
Iglesia’ for this evening’s supper, the ‘ Contractors’ workmen are finishing
drilling out the small squares ,from the flagstones, for the new planters,
yesterday the ‘ Scaffolding’ company worked from 8-00 am to 8-00 pm, non-stop, erecting
the scaffolding around the Town Hall, this morning the ‘ Council’ painters have
started work!
See below;
When we returned we had our normal light
breakfast of ‘ Weetabix’ toast & tea, Brenda is catching up with the
Ironing, in the ‘ chill-out room and I’m in the office/studio typing &
posting today’s Blog, I’m listening, as usual to ‘ Castle Radio FM 89.2 &
Online on the WWW’ – at the moment it’s the ‘ Country & Western Show ‘ – on
the live ‘ Breakfast Show’ with Andrew Charles, starting yesterday morning he
has a new spot, dedicated to ‘ Sir ‘ Malcolm & ‘Lady’ Brenda – featuring “
Horizontal Dancing “ – which I first introduced to the listening public on my
live show ‘ Sir Malcolm’s Classic Session’ a couple of year ago, this morning’s
track, which I suggested, was ‘Tiger Feet ‘ by ‘ Mud’!
This morning the sun broke through earlier
and the sky is bright blue, the light breeze has cleared away all the clouds,
by lunchtime it’s due to reach 24 degs+ over the next few days, including
Thursday, when Jason & Donna are with us, we are in for more of the same,
if anything getting a little warmer, perfect for the time of the year, over the
weekend and into next week it’s hot, warm & sunny, with few clouds at
times, hovering in the mid 20s, watch this space.
Yesterday morning over at the ‘Pier Head’
in Liverpool the latest liner to berth this season was the “ Artania “ – as you
can see below in a rather overcast & cloudy waterfront.
For our supper this evening we are having ‘
Escalope’s of Chicken Breast ‘ – which our Butcher took off a large/local ‘
Bird’ this morning, he slices the breast as you wait, I also had the ‘ Chicken
Wings’ (6) which he keeps off all the Birds, for our supper tomorrow night, we
are keeping things simple this week, as it’s the ‘ Chef’s & Second Chefs ‘
day off, as well as all the ‘ staff’ on Thursday!
The ‘ Escalope’s Of Chicken Breast ‘ are
pan-seared in foaming Lemon Butter & Balsamic Vinegar, garnished with
seared Button Mushrooms, and served with Whole ‘ French’ Green Beans’ and for a
change some twice-cooked ‘ Frits’ – the old classic ‘ Chicken n’ Chips’ – posh style!
We are taking things easy for the rest of
the day, because we can, I we preparing for the ‘ State Visit’ on Thursday of
Jason & Donna, which we are looking forward to, watch this space.
PS; In the lunchtime post we have just received a ' Post Card ' - our first this year, from our old friends & customers Terry & Alma, who now live in Northern France, above Caen, they are on holiday in the ' Vandee ' Region of France, on the Western coast, with sandy beaches. 'Thanks '!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
