MANILVA TODAY.

MONDAY/TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY 11TH/12/13TH OCTOBER 2010.


On Monday morning after a little lie in we had are usual light breakfast of toast and fresh fruit with tea; the weather is back to sunny with blue skies ,the temperature has gone down a few degrees but it is still reaching 25/26 degs. and it is the best time of the year for walking so we called and picked Cheta up from her house just around the corner as Isobell her owner does not get out much.Cheta charges in through the shutters at all times of the day and evening and even finds us if we are up on the roof terrace! We went the long way round to the surgery as Brenda had an appointment for her Anti – Tetanus booster jab and then walked back around the village. In the evening we had cold Chicken for supper and then watched the second series of Gavin and Stacey.

Yesterday we a had a at home day as Brenda was catching up with the ironing; I was taking the rubbish up to the bins when I saw this little Motor Bike with a very young boy with all the gear on charging around the back streets, so I found him and his family in Calle Mar and got the pictures as you can see below. They defiantly start then young in Manilva! He even puts his knee out when he is leaning over going around corners just like his hero Pedrosa! For dinner we had Braised Steak and Onions with vegetables with New Potatoes and then watched the football, Spain beat Scotland but the England match that I watched on line was terrible.

Today we have been for a long walk around the village with Cheta again, on the way we picked up some Pork Cutlets for dinner tonight and I took the pictures below of the views across the valley to the mountains; when we got back we found in the post that my bus pass had arrived, I am now officially “ Don Malcolm Lawrence Sexton ”as you can see in the first picture !

Thought for the Day;

Education is an admirable thing but it is well worth to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.
