MONDAY 31st/ DECEMBER 2018. “ NEW
YEARS EVE “
We had a little lie in this morning before
both ‘Chico & Charlie’ let us know that it was time to go out, ‘Reina’ is
joining us later for the evening, after we all freshened up Brenda & Thea
took them for their first walk of the day around the village, meanwhile I was
on breakfast duty and prepared the folks a light breakfast of toast & tea,
we then started on the this evenings preparation’s for supper, Tim & Thea
then decided to go for a walk around the village with the dogs.
Luckily this morning it’s dry &
crisp’ with a stiff breeze out in the open, the clouds are clearing and the sun
is breaking though, by lunchtime its’ due to reach 16/17 degs+ - tomorrow it’s
more of the same, then for the rest of the week and over the weekend wear are
in for a slightly cooler spell, down to 14 degs at times, with still the threat
of the ‘ wet-stuff’ in the air, the following week is also the same, even a
cooler at times, at night down to single figs, 9 degs! Watch this space.
At lunchtime on our walk we ended up sat
outside ‘ Bar Rojas’ in the hot sunshine for a nice cool drink, we then moved
on to ‘Bar Castillo’ which was bouncing with locals, for a very nice ‘Tapas’
lunch and more drinks!
For our supper this evening we have
decided to have the ‘ Roast Entrecote of Beef - on the Bone’ – cooked ‘Pink –
no Blood’ and served with Crushed Carrots & Turnips, Broccoli &
Cauliflower Florets in a three Cheese sauce, Baby Brussels Sprouts with Smoked
Bacon Sippets and Garden Peas, not forgetting the Yorkshire Puddings and finger-licking
Pan Gravy, along with the Roast Potatoes in Beef Dripping! A selection of pre- party drinks and a selection
of fine Wines to follow, before we see in the ‘ New Year 2019’ three times!!!
First here in Spain, with the ‘12’
grapes at midnight, then with a call to Sandra & Bill over in Canada,
lastly watching ‘ Jool’s Holland’s Annual
Hootenanny’ from London! Later we will
no doubt end up in ‘ Bar Rojas ‘ for their ‘ Karakoke’ night!!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
