THURSDAY 9th/ AUGUST 2018.
NB; Don’t forget to go back to yesterday’s ‘Blog’
as you start to read today’s, as I add pictures & comments all the time!
We all had a nice lie in this morning, in
fact I woke ‘Maisie’ up! She’s was fast asleep on her bath towel at the foot of
the bed, we then got ourselves ready to go out for the first walk of the day,
with no water, it’s off from 8-30 am until 2-30 pm, there were notices all
around the village and on the ‘ Council’ web-page!
When we returned I treated us to my now
famous ‘ Toasted Crispy Smoked Bacon Butties’ – smothered in ‘ HP’ Brown sauce,
open on brown for Brenda, with mugs of hot, strong tea, at the same time we got
ready the shopping list for tomorrow morning when I’m out on my travels down to
Sabinillas for the weekly shopping, braving the holiday hordes and traffic!
As we set off on our walk with ‘ Maisie’ –
down the shady side of the street, there was a very welcoming stiff ‘Levante’ breeze blowing up from the Mediterranean,
overnight it was still very hot & clammy, it makes it very pleasant to have
fresh air blowing through your hair, for a change! Today it’s still very hot
& sunny, by lunchtime it’s due to reach 32 degs+ - tomorrow and over the
weekend it’s more of the same, getting hotter at times, Next week we are in for
another ‘ hot one’ to say the least, hovering in the mid 30s during the day and
in the mid 20s at night, watch this space.
PS; The new ‘ Mosaic Mural ‘ in the Plaza
de la Vendemia is progressing, this
morning it’s now nearly finished, using a different adhesive, I spoke to one of
the lady designers yesterday evening and congratulated her on the new design, it’s
‘fingers crossed’ this time that it stays up, the very hot & dry weather dosn’t
help, along with very heavy rain storms & winds at times, as well the children
kicking footballs at it! ( Ball Games are not banned in the square!)
Nearly finished !
Nearly finished !
She also confirmed that the ‘ Mosaic Mural’
behind the grape crushing pit, of the three ‘ Caballero’s’ is going to be repaired at the same time, as
some of the tiles are damaged also, the good news is that it’s not changing, so
I’m still ‘ Immortalized ‘ for all time!
– Along with Mario & Diego!!
The original picture.
And the original Murals !
This evening we are going along to ‘Bar
Castillo’ for our hopefully ‘pre-ordered’ Tapas’ supper, of “ Rosada Frito
& Patatas Fritas “ as its’ the ‘
Head Chef & his Staff ‘ night-off! On Friday we will be having a ‘ Fish Night’
again and then on Saturday it’s back to our ‘Steak Night ‘ – Sunday is still
TBC, watch this space.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
