SATURDAY 23rd/ NOVEMBER 2019.
After a little lie in this morning and a
quick freshen up I shot off on my travels ( short this week) down to
Sabinillas, I called into ‘ Super Sol’ and did our main shop (smaller than
usual) before stopping at the ‘ English Bookshop’ for the local newspapers etc,
I then found a place to park, by the ‘Movistar’ office, and they printed out
the ‘Bill/Document’ that I need – ‘ RESULT’
Hopefully ‘ Big Brian’ is going to call in
( tomorrow) and help me finish the ‘Online Documents’ to set the process on the
way, with ‘OliveNet’ for our new ‘Router/Fiber Optic¡ system, they have confirmed that we are able to be
connected to their lines along ‘Calle Mar’ – Brian will then stop for his ‘
Sunday Roast Supper’ again!
I then came back up the hill, through the
now bare vine fields, and after unpacking back at the house I went back down to
the underground car park, sadly, there was a car/van parked in my reserved spot
( No 100!) – I’m going to call into the ‘ Town Hall’ first thing on Monday morning,
to the responsible department to sort things out, watch this space.
All of yesterday and into the late evening
we had moderate/heavy rain storms, with strong gusts of wind, overnight it
stayed dry with a stiff breeze, rattling the shutters, this morning the sky has
cleared and is blue, the sun it attempting to break through, the stiff breeze
is keeping it ‘ Fresh & Crisp’ in the shade, by lunchtime it’s going to reach 16/17 degs+ -
overnight down to 11/12 degs – tomorrow is going to be the same, as the breeze
drops a little, next week is now looking more settled, as the next ‘ Atlantic’
front comes in, bringing with it sunshine with patchy clouds, as the breeze
drops down, going a little warmer each day, by Thursday back up to 20/21 degs+ and
staying like that over next weekend, about normal for the time of the year, watch
this space.
On the sports front this weekend; over in
the ‘Premiere League’ Everton welcome Norwich City, Liverpool travel down the
M6/M1 to play Crystal Palace & Manchester City are at home to Chelsea, over
here in ‘La Liga’ Real Madrid welcome Real Sociedad & Barcelona travel to
Leganes. The ‘ National Hunt Racing’ this afternoon is from Haydock Park &
Ascot.
For our supper this evening we are having ‘
Grilled Entrecote Steaks’ – ‘French’ trimmed and smeared with Dijon Mustard,
then ‘ Flash’ grilled on a very hot griddle-plate ‘ Med-Rare’ – then left to
rest, garnished with seared Asparagus Spears, Button Mushrooms & Baby Shallots,
served with whole Baby ‘French’ Green Beans and triple-cooked ‘ Frits’
We are having a nice relaxing weekend as
Brenda is still not feeling 100% and back to normal, tomorrow evening we have
arranged a ‘ Skype’ video call with Sandra & Bill, over in Everett,
Ontario, Canada, for a catch up with all their news, as usual Brenda will call
Jenny, during the day, on a ‘ Skype’ audio call, this evening we will watch ‘
Strictly Come Dancing’ – last night we watched ‘ “ The World’s Most Scenic
Train Journeys “ - this week in Norway,
from Oslo to Bodo inside the Artic Circle, over 850 kms, narrated by ‘Bill
Nighy’ - we then caught the ‘ Graham Norton Show’ with
Lewis Hamilton, who was very interesting and Kylie Minogue singing ‘ Live’ –
after supper we will channel hop to film a good film to watch.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
