SUNNY AND A EVEN HOTTER MANILVA AT THE START OF THE WEEKEND

FRIDAY 16th/ AUGUST 2013.


We shot off down to Sabinillas first thing this morning to beat the crowds and the heat,we failed on both as ‘Mercadona’ was packed and it was very hot, down in Sabinillas - it’s always hotter as there is no breeze not like here in sunny Manilva!

The work on the new ‘Plaza de la Vendimia’ is going at a great rate with all the different workman all over the park striving to get it finished in time for the ‘Vendimia Festival’ at the end of the month and also they are trying to finish the improvements to ‘La Pedreta’ See the picture above.

After we had un-packed I shot down to the butchers for our Saturday night ‘Steak’ and Brenda went down to the local market for some fresh flowers; I have just made another batch of my famous Tomato salsa and also made the “ Cruz Campo Batter ” for tonight’s supper, we are having ‘ Merluza – Hake’ with Mushy Peas and small square Chips with the Tomato salsa on the side!

The forecast for the weekend and next week is more of the same and getting hotter, the nights are now also going a lot warmer. Brenda has to wait for the sun to move around before she can go out on the roof terrace to work on the all-over tan!

Tomorrow is the big day – Football is back – over in England in the ‘Premier League’ over the weekend Liverpool are at home to Stoke, Everton are away at Norwich and Manchester City are home to Newcastle on Monday; here in ‘La Liga’ Barcelona are at home to Levante, Real Madrid are also at home to Real Betis and Malaga are away in Valencia.

Thought for the day; See above.
