FRIDAY 5th/ JULY 2019.
We hand another nice long lie in this
morning as I didn’t need to go out on my travels, down to Sabinillas for the
weekly shopping, thankfully, as we are stocked up and not using our usual food
& drink etc, at the moment, due to ‘ health’ reasons!
After freshening up we had a light
breakfast of fresh fruit ( sliced chilled Nectarines) with toast & tea, ‘Chispa’
called in to see us, as usual, she’s in & out all the time, this afternoon ‘
Scruffy’ is back with us for a few hours again, in ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ as
Adrian has his second, of twenty daily appointments at the main Hospital in
Malaga, for his ‘Prostate Radiotherapy’ – ‘Scruffy’ is back with us on Sunday
evening for a sleep over as Adrian also has a ‘ Heart’ check up on Monday
before his next appointment in the evening in Malaga ( Monday to Fridays)
The sun was out early this morning after another
very hot night, the sky is bright blue and there is not a breath of air, by
lunchtime it will reach 29 degs+ - tomorrow up to 32 degs, on Sunday there is a
light breeze coming back, next week is looking very warm & sunny, hovering
in the low 30s all week, down to only 21 degs
overnight – it’s going to be a ‘ Hot-One’! Watch this space.
See below a picture showing Sabinillas and
the coast, taken from the terrace of the ‘ Manilva Green Aparthotel’ - across the vine fields.
Over
in Liverpool, berthed at the Pier Head, yesterday was the new offshore patrol
vessel ‘ HMS Medway ‘ – launched in 2017.
See below;
For our supper this evening we are having
small ‘Goujons of Haddock’ in a ‘Cruzecamp Beer Batter’ – fried in shallow
Vegetable Oil, until crisp & golden, served with ‘ Mushy Green Peas’ and
homemade ‘ Tartar’ sauce and lots of Lemon Wedges, accompanied with a few
triple-cooked ‘ Chip’s’ – our appetites are slowly returning!
On Saturday we are having ‘ Grilled Fillet
Steaks’ with ‘ Frits’ – then on Sunday, at Brenda’s request, we are going to have ‘Poached Chicken Breasts ‘ – then sliced when
cold and served with a nice Mixed Salad and Brenda’s famous ‘ Potato Salad’
At the moment we are watching a lot of the
Tennis from Wimbledon, then catching other programmes later, tomorrow it’s the
start of this year’s ‘ Tour de France’ in Brussels, over the weekend we will
catch the final episode of ‘ Gentleman Jack’ as well as the next episode of ‘
Killing Eve’ in between watching the Final of the “ Women’s World Cup “as the
USA play Holland.
Just a thought for the weekend, to bring
back many happy memories of the good old days, back in the late 70s, early 80s,
of our ‘ Champagne Days’ – to help with our recuperations to get back to
full-health and ‘ taste’ the good times again, at the moment we only manage one
or two bottles of the ‘good-stuff’ each year, on special occasions, with family
& friends! “ Cheers “ to the next time!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
