MANILVA NEWSFLASH.

MONDAY/TUESDAY 18^TH/19^TH APRIL 2011.

Well after the weekend we had a little lie in on Monday morning; we then had an at home day catching up with the chores around the house, meanwhile I caught up with the WWW. ! We had Cheta up in the house as she can’t run around outside as she is attracting all the boy dogs at the moment! In the evening we had Steak and Chips for dinner, we missed them on Saturday as we were out playing! We then settled down to watch a film on TV. The weather forecast for this week is not too good; this is typical of Semana Santa week – it always rains! and I’m sorry to say that it has just started, also whenever it’s nice over in the UK we get the tail end off the nasty stuff.

This morning after a tea and toast we went out with Cheta for walk around the village, there are starting to be some glum faces as they can’t hold the parades if it is raining, yesterday in Savilla the main parade was cancelled at the last moment and they were all in tears ! Late this afternoon I had a call from Clive over in Guadalmina asking us if we could go over and look after the villa for a week as they have an emergency in their family, Caroline is already over in England and he wants to go for a week; so we have had to suddenly get Tim and Thea’s room ready and tidy up around the house as we won’t have much time when we get back next Wednesday, they arrive on the Friday of the Royal Wedding for their “ State Visit ” Tonight we are having a Chicken Fricassee with rice for supper and then we starting to pack.

Thought for the Day;

Show me what a man envies the most in others and I will show you what he has got the most of himself.
