SUNNY MANILVA ON FRIDAY AT THE START OF THE WEEKEND

FRIDAY 31st/ MAY 2013.


Another early morning as I had an appointment at the surgery; this time we had a very positive result as our new doctor, our old one has moved down to Sabinillas,arrived and I was first on the list to see her, Maria! She updated all my details from the three consultants, adjusted my prescriptions, gave me the once over and then sorted Brenda out at the same time, she is having the full works checked out next week, Blood and Urine tests and Blood pressure taken – then she is going back for a review as she has not had one for a while. I then called into our chemists in Calle Mar and picked up the new tablet’s, I also had my Blood Pressure taken, which was fine and then my weight checked – I’ am down again ! In fact I have lost 1 stone in old terms !! So good news all round.

We then shot down to Sabinillas for the weekend shopping at both supermarkets, called into the bank and the ‘Ferretaria’for some light bulbs, collected the papers from the English bookshop, exchanged our books for two more ‘Patterson’s’ and posted another birthday card( Watch out in North Wales!) The pictures above show that Bank Street has had it’s first coat of Ashphelt,next week they are doing the garden work and painting the road markings; After getting back to the house we unpacked and then went down to the our butchers were we picked up the Steak for Saturday evening, I also got some ‘Calves Liver’ for next week and Chicken wings for Tapas.

Today is definitely the hottest so far as the breeze has dropped and the forecast for the weekend and into next week is even better – we will be reaching the 30s and higher!

Tonight for supper we are having ‘Goujons of Hake’ made with fresh Breadcrumbs from the local Bakery with Garden Peas, square Chips, Homemade Tartar sauce and lots of Lemon juice! One of our neighbor’s has just dropped off some fresh ‘Campo’ Eggs that still have the Chicken ---- on them !  We will then catch a good film as Friday is the best night on lots of the main channels.-- " Terminator 2 Judgement Day " from 1991 with Arnold Schwarzenegger ( Hasta La Vista - Baby ! ) Linda Hamilton,Edward Furlong and Robert Patrick as the other one !
