A VERY WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON WEDNESDAY.


WEDNESDAY 6th/ JUNE 2019.  “ 75th  ANNIVERSARY OF ‘D’DAY 1944 “



































We had a surprise lie in this morning as I had no appointment at the ‘Estepona Hospital’ as it’s a ‘Training Day ‘ in the ‘Physiotherapy Department’ ‘Lolo’ slept all night and has to be awoken in the morning! After a quick freshen up Brenda shot out with ‘Lolo’ for his first walk of the day, she called into the local sub-post office, as she passed, to post a birthday card.


I was on the breakfast rota to I prepared my favourite ‘Crispy Smoked Bacon Butty’ – on buttered white bread ( not toasted ) - open on brown for Brenda( toasted) - mine smothered with ‘HP’ Brown sauce, with mugs of strong/hot tea, for when they returned.


This afternoon ‘ Scoobie’ is being dropped off for a short three night sleep-over, at the moment we are receiving lots of requests for space in ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ – but we are already booked for the dates! Watch this space.










Its’ another glorious day down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol ‘ – the sun was out early and the sky is blue and cloudless, as there is a pleasing light breeze, by lunchtime it will reach 25 degs+ - over night we had the hottest night of the year, so far, we needed to put the bedroom fan on, the rest of the week and over the weekend is staying the same, hovering in the high 20s, with a few patchy clouds at times, next week is now looking the same, with the breeze stiffing at times, watch this space.


See below an aerial view of the coast, with Sabinillas & Puerto de la Duquesa, the Duquesa Golf course and up to sunny Manilva!












For our supper this evening we are having ‘ Grilled Spanish Lamb Cutlets – Chuletas de Cordero ‘  - marinated in Rosemary & Olive Oil – ‘Flash’ cooked on a very hot griddle-plate ‘ Pink’ – no blood! - garnished with seared Button Mushrooms, accompanied with ‘Mint Sauce’ Served with glazed Carrot Batons and ‘Pommes de Terre Rissolees ‘ – boiled Baby New Potatoes, in their skins, then tossed in foaming Parsley Butter until golden all over.












This afternoon/evening we taking things easy, relaxing and watching the TV, later taking the dogs out for their walks.


















Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
