MANILVA TODAY.

TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY 5TH/6TH/7TH OCTOBER 2010.

Well after a “ Helluva “ weekend down here in sunny Manilva it is now very quiet around the house and village; the weather is at this time of the year still hot and sunny but with cooler nights and a little breeze during the day, we spend a lot of our time on the roof terrace and can now go for walks again around the village, Brenda is at this moment on the terrace doing the ironing in her bikini ! On Tuesday we caught up with the chores around the house,washing,mopping.changing beds etc. meanwhile I brought the blog up to date !! Mano and Anna called in to catch up with any news,Mano fixed the TV while he was here, which had gone off and diagnosed that we need a new toilet seat upstairs!! For dinner we had a hot Chicken Curry with Basmati Rice and then settled down to watch the TV.

Yesterday morning, Wednesday I had to go across to Estepona on some business, when I got back the details and tax forms for my pension had arrived in the post; they have been filled in and will go in the post on Friday, we then picked up some Pork Cutlets for dinner which I pan fried in a Lemon Butter sauce, we had with them Llyonaise Potatoes,Galzed Carrots and Spring Greens. On checking the calendar we realized that it is only four weeks until we go across the Guadalmina to look after Clive and Carolyn’s villa for five weeks, from the 3rd of November to the 7th December !We spoke to them last week and are arranging to go across to finalize the details some time in the next couple of weeks.

Today we are having a easy/lazy day at home as the sun is out; tonight we are having Albondigas (Meatballs ) in a Provencale sauce, which I made yesterday, the Pork meatballs are from our local butcher. The picture’s
below show our current flower display outside the front door which all our neighbours always comment on.


Thought for the Day;

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
