A VERY WARM & SUNNY MANILVA & MARBELLA ON TUESDAY.


TUESDAY 10th/ JULY 2018.


































We were up early this morning, after a little lie in, we took ‘Prince Paddy & Chico’ for their first walk of the day, we then grabbed a quick light breakfast of toast & tea before freshening ourselves up, after settling them both down, we headed off along the coast road to the ‘ Costa Del Sol Hospital’ past Marbella, for Brenda’s appointment with the ‘Kidney Consultant’ for her six-month review/check up.


It’s the hottest day so far this year, even warmer as you head along the coast, so by lunchtime it’s was due to reach 33 degs + - the rest of the week is getting warmer each day as the ‘Sahara Heat Wave’ hits us! Watch this space.






We had a little wait to see the Consultant, not the regular Lady, for the past few years, he was very efficient and gave Brenda the full check-over as well as going through her notes and confirming all her various medication tablets, which he adjusted later, all her reading/results are very good, she is showing a stable recovery, with her blood readings improved, her cholesterol levels fine, her Heart readings improved and the diabetic levels down, which all means that he has put her on a 10 month review/check up, not 6 as usual!


What a “ RESULT “











We then came back along the coast to a very sunny Manilva where ‘Paddy & Chico’ were delighted to see us, in fact they both had ‘ Mad’ moments running around, we then went along to ‘ Bar Castillo ‘ for a nice cool drink, to celebrate, at this time of the day the Bar is on the shady side of the street, both dogs had a nice cool drink, out of ‘ Chico’s’ collapsible water mug! We had a small selection of light ‘Tapas’ – then our friend Andy came along and joined us, it was his day-off, he’s now the ‘ Night Manager’ of the ‘ Manilva Green Aparthotel’  

Then Carlos joined us, it was his day-off from ‘La Taberna 2 ‘ where he is the ‘Duty Manager’ – he had been playing golf with his Boss, the owner of also, ‘Marlow’s Fish & Chip Shop’ – some other Spanish friends/locals joined in, so it ended up being a ‘ Session’ !! We came home feeling no pain and had a nice ‘ Siesta’ – which we needed!


For now that’s today’s Blog – back to normal tomorrow.
