Thursday 5th February.
First thing in the morning as it was raining we decided to walk the dogs one at a time so as only one of us would get wet, so I took Abigail for her walk and came back soaking wet! When it was Brenda’s turn the sun came out,typical!! We then went across to Malaga Airport to pick up Clive and Carolyn just after lunch,we could not park in our usual place as it was full so we had to go down by the Taxi park on an island and put the hazard lights on for a short while,which turned out to be nearly an hour as the plane had to abort its first landing and only just made it at the second attempt due to the high winds and rain! Clive said that it was rather “ Gripping ” When we got back to the villa the heavens had opened, again, and so the folks could see for themselves how the rain effected the villa for the first time as they have not been in the house when it rains heavy before!The next time we house sit for them they will be in a rented house as they are moving out for three months as the builders move in to refurbish the villa. We came back over to the house in the late afternoon and the first thing we did was to put the heater on as we settled back into village life.
Friday 6th February.
In the morning we shot out to stock up for the weekend at the local supermarkets as we had called into the English butchers on the way home,It was a beautiful crisp day as we came back into the village Mano and Anna called in to catch up with all the news,theirs and ours! In the evening Mano and Anna suggested that they could bring round the Steak and Ale Pie that Anna was just about to make at home so Brenda made some of her now “ Historic ” Mashed Potato together with Cabbage and Mashed Carrots and Turnip all washed down with beer.A lovely night was had by all as we listened to some music and watched the 200th edition of the childrens progamme on Canal Sur,the local Andalucia station.We have decided to have to make Fridays when we can “ Pie Night ” so watch out for Anna’s Fish Pie and Chicken,Ham and Mushroom and my Steak and Kidney!! Next week Anna is over in North Wales for a few days as she is trying to rent out the house in Rhyl on a long term let.
