NEWS UPDATE; THE SAGA CONTINUES.

FRIDAY 2nd APRIL 2010.

Well we are still here in Sunny Tarifa and it is looking like the saga is going to go on for a while longer; this morning we went to the clinic in Tarifa and one of the doctors that has been looking after Brenda took us straight in to check the wound, yesterday we signed out from the clinic as we thought that we would be back in Manilva !

Chris phoned at about noon and said that he had broken down again, this time in Bordeaux,he had got the car repaired and was heading for North West Spain and then across through Madrid to the Costa del Sol; This time it was terminal with his car and he was having to leave it at the garage, he is taking a flight from Bordeaux to either Malaga,which would be the best as Mano has said that he will go and pick him at the airport, or back to London and then catch the next available flight to Gibraltar!!

Needless to say we have cancelled Easter at home in Manilva,this morning I rang the English butchers and he has re-hung our two Legs of Lamb for another time ! We are very low on food and drink as the shops have been shut for the last two days and we did not expect to be still here; for today the ration is one Egg each !

Meanwhile Joan who is not very well at the best of times doesn’t know whether she is on this earth or fuller’s !! I must say that it has got us shaking a bit as we are very concerned as we are struggling to keep on top of things; the three main bills of Water, Electricity and the Phones are all due in the next week or so and there is still no sign of any money transfers coming through.

As I have said many times before – WATCH THIS SPACE !!

Thought for Today;

We are P- - - - d O - - !
