Monday/Wednesday 24th/26th November.
On Monday morning we called into the bank to set up the Internet Banking page on the PC.so we can follow the transfer of the payments from Germany and then called into the Hypermarket to buy some Christmas Decorations for the house as the ones that we have got are too small as they came from the Winnebago.We bought our first tree and all the decorations but as we had a discount voucher, that we had earned from the last three months,it cost us practically nothing! The tree is now in the lounge with all the lights on it and Brenda has done a marvelous job of decorating it,also the chill out room had had the treatment as well;we have Poinsettia’s in all the rooms so the house has a lovely Christmas feeling. Just as we were going out we had a Skype call from Australia,it was Lyn, so Brenda was able to have a long chat as it costs nothing,Skype to Skype! For supper we had Pork Cutlets from the butcher in the village and then caught up with some reading,we have a English Bookshop down in Sabinillas which exchanges books and buys back from you the books that you have bought from them at the same time so it costs very little for our reading! The weather is changing for a couple of days in the middle of the week but it is still sunny during the day,on Tuesday on the way back from shopping we called into see Mano and Anna to check on the Xmas arrangements as e-mails have been flying between here and Tenerife,with Sally Ann in her business mode,to make sure that we miss nothing! Mano and Anna in the evening joined us for dinner as we had Braised Steak and Onions,Cabbage,Mashed Carrots and Swede,Mushy Peas and the famous Brenda Mashed Potatoes all washed down with a fine Rioja and followed with music and dancing as we listened to the I Pod in its Speaker dock! Today as we checked the Spanish Bank account,on line, the first payment had been transferred and the second one will be in by the end of week,we hope!We have been asked to house sit by Clive and Carolyn this weekend for a few days from Friday to Friday,so we are fitting it in with our prebooked night out at the Marriot Resort on Saturday( Our Wedding Anniversary) As we were out and about on our travels the door handle of the Smart Car broke but as we were near Vidals we called in and he has arranged for his garage to order the part and fix it. Tonight is curry night,you can smell it at the top of the street!
