MANILVA ON SUNDAY.

SUNDAY 22nd APRIL 2012.

As forecast the weather today is marvelous; clear blue skies and hot sunshine down here on the Costa del Sol ! After our tea and toast, our local honey is coming to an end so we will have to source more, we got things on the go for our Sunday roast dinner – Loin of Pork with Glazed Apple Slices and of course Brenda’s famous vegetables and my equally famous Roast Potatoes and finger licking gravy !! We then freshened ourselves up and just then Mano called to invite us up for drinks at Bar Rojas; Lumy’s Paella ( Tapas portion’s ) helped the drinks go down as it reached 25 degs. In the sun ! In the afternoon Brenda disappeared up to the roof terrace as I watched the football from England ; the early match was Manchester Utd. v Everton and I caught the second half which turned out to be the game of the day as six goals were scored – meaning that Everton came from being 4-2 down to 4-4 ! Sir Alex chocked on his gum ! It meant that if Manchester City beat Wolves they would only be 3 points behind Utd with the next match the derby game at City next Monday evening ! They did beat Wolves 2-0 and at the same time relegated them – game on !! Sadly at the same time Liverpool lost at home to West Ham 0-1 – unbelievably !! Mano joined us in the evening for dinner and after we watched with him the ‘ Million Euros Drop ’ The other evening two ladies on the first question put it all on one answer to start and lost ! They were speechless and so was the presenter – last night another two ladies had 150,00 euros left on the final question and changed their minds and moved it across to the other answer but is turned out that on the replay it was after time so it was moved back to their original choice – as it happened it was the right answer – so they won when they would have lost !! The late film was one that we had not seen or heard of before; “ The Brave One ” from 2007 was an unusual murder/cops story in New York starring Jodie Foster and Terrence Howard - catch it to see what it is all about – very moving ! The pictures below are to celebrate Saint Georges Day tomorrow – even the Manilva council put on a bash on Saturday night down in Sabinillas !


Thought for the Day;


Better than a thousand useless words is one single word that gives peace.
