CASA DEL ABUELO.

Monday/Friday 3rd./7th.November.


As we got up on Monday morning we were not “ Happy Bunnies” after the disappointment of not selling the Winnebago on eBay over the weekend;it means that we are back to square one,we have to go through our options and go and see the garage later today.The forecast for the next ten days is good with warm sunshine and crisp evenings to look forward to.In the villa everything is fine,the animals have settled down to our routine and we are enjoying our time here in Gualdalmina.On Tuesday we caught up with the shopping and called into the English butchers which is just down the road,they had diced Lamb on offer so we are making a large pan of Stew which will end up as Scouse for another meal! In the evening we watched Jools Holland,he had the Rev. Al Green on,Clive and Carolyn are going to see him on Wednesday evening at the Albert Hall,The Killers,who were very good and our favourites at the moment,Pendulum,who were introduced to us by the Moffatts! They were unbelievable for their first time” Live ”on TV.We caught up with our chores around the house and Brenda hung out the washing in the warm sun on Wednesday morning, which was the first chance for a few days due to the cold weather we have been having.Thursday was a lovely Costa del Sol day as we went out to find the market in San Pedro,which as it happens is just around the corner from us.It was very busy and also very large and is one of the best that we have been to,they are on every day of the week up and down the coast and offer very cheap goods,food and bargains! We then called into the garage to discuss with the owner our options;it is the wrong time to sell as the market is low due to the dollar problems but we do not have the time to wait so we are having to sell it for far less than it is worth.It looks like we have a cash customer in Germany so we are making our minds up over night.Today,Friday,is our last day in the villa as Clive and Carolyn are returning tonight,we are picking them up from the airport in Malaga at 11-00pm.and we are going home in the morning to Manilva.In the last few minutes we have accepted an offer for the Winnebago from a person in Germany so now we have to cross our fingers and watch out for the money transfer!!
