Wednesday 24th September .
This morning we got up late and sat on the terrace with our tea and toast watching an eagle gliding above the tall trees at the bottom of the garden.Today it is hot and sunny but the forecast for the weekend is not good so we have arranged with Carolyn for Miguel,the gardener,to come and check the drains by the pond as when it rained on Monday evening the water on the patio has not drained away,also this afternoon the pond man is coming to fit a new pump and the tree surgeon is spraying the large palm tree.After breakfast we went for a swim in the pool for the first time in a long while,which was a lovely temperature.Last night we had supper after we had popped down to the local supermarket in the afternoon to stock up,pan fried Chicken breast in a lime butter sauce with sauté potatoes and vegetables.This evening we are going out to the Beach House for dinner as it’s my birthday today! Brenda brought the cards from our house,the local post in Manilva is very good,I also had birthday greetings from City Talk in Liverpool.The pictures above I added later in the evening after another excellent dinner at the Beach House,we started with Confit of Duck Rissoto with baby peas and then Brenda had a warm Lobster salad with Asparagus and I had a Sirloin steak Bearnaise with thick cut chips!Before dinner we called into the Don Carlos Hotel for Kir Royales to start the evening off on the right note!
