SUNNY AND WARM MANILVA ON SATURDAY

SATURDAY 5th/ OCTOBER 2013.



We had a nice lie in this morning, no crickets, the sun is out and it’s getting warmer by the minute; after our tea and toast I was back up in the office trying to get on-line to watch “ Saturday Morning Kitchen” on the smaller PC which has a different server on which I have the ‘Film On’ channel on which I can watch English TV in full –screen; last weekend they launched from Russia the new rocket/satellite that is going to take over from the old one and then you will not be able to watch in Spain any of the English channels from the satellite dish’s and free on-line systems!

Are you following all this? We don’t have these systems by choice but the ‘Film On’ channel is the new way to watch the English TV by connecting your PC to the main TV! I’ am ahead of the game but sadly this morning I could not get the contact so no ‘Saturday Morning Kitchen’!!

Brenda has just got back from a long walk with dog around the village as I was in the kitchen getting things on the go for the weekend; tonight we are having, again, ‘Steak Poivrade’ as we enjoyed it last week, so the first thing is to crack the Black Peppercorn’s with the rolling pin! I’ve trimmed and seasoned the steaks and then blanched the chips, Brenda is getting her finely sliced Green Beans ready meanwhile. The Spanish Lamb Cutlets/Chops are thinner than a English cut but are still ideal for the ‘Lancashire Hot Pot’ which I will get ready in the morning

It looks like we will be able to go up on the roof terrace later for our ‘Happy Hour’ and start our new ‘Patterson’s’ The weather in the rest of Spain is very wet with heavy storms but as usual down here on the ‘Costa Del Sol’ we are missing it all – at the moment !

This afternoon I’ am planning to watch the Manchester' Blues' game as it’s the early kick-off; then I will catch the rest of the football results here and over in England later. At the ‘Korean Grand Prix’ Vettle is on pole for tomorrow’s race,again,boring! The tennis from the ‘China Open’ in Beijing is on TDP so Brenda has been watching that .

Full time score; Manchester City 3 Everton 1  - sorry Big Bri !
Full time score; Liverpool 3 Crystal Palace 1  - sorry Big Bri,again as Liverpool go top of the 'Premier League !!

Tonight after supper we will find a film to watch as I channel-hop.
