Well the 1st
November has arrived and the weather over the weekend is going a little colder,
over night the temperatures dropped by 3/4degs! – next week it’s getting a
little damp and very overcast at the same time, winter is arriving later than
normal, we can’t complain as we have had a record breaking summer, the last
eight months have been the finest and warmest on record! So we are putting a
light duvet on the bed and have got our thicker bathrobes out. At the moment
the sun is out and the sky is blue if not a little cooler.
After
breakfast we did a bank transfer from our old bank in Colwyn Bay which we do once a month, the rate
of exchange is up again so it’s a good time for our pension transfers to arrive
over the next two weeks, fingers crossed!
I’m up in
the office righting/posting the Blog as you can see and on the smaller PC I’m
watching ‘BBC TV 1 Breakfast News’ on-line before ‘Saturday Kitchen Live’
starts; Brenda is pottering about catching up with the chores,washing,ironing,cleaning,polishing,hanging
curtains etc. It’s one of her ‘ing’ days!
Later I
will get tonight’s supper ready ‘Entrecote Steak’ cooked on a very hot griddle
plate – ‘Med-Rare’ with sautéed Baby Mushrooms & Onions, finely sliced
Green Beans, twice-cooked Frits, Deep-Fried Garlic Buds for Brenda and mine
topped with a Campo Fried Egg.
On the
sports front over in Austin, Texas at the ‘Circuit of the Americas’ it’s the
USA Grand Prix; meanwhile over here in ‘La Liga’ Barcelona welcome Celta De
Vigo and Real Madrid travel to Granada. In the ‘Premiere League’ over in the UK
Liverpool travel to Newcastle,Everton welcome Swansea and then tomorrow it’s the ‘Match
of the Day’ as Manchester City welcome Manchester United!
We are
having a lazy/quiet weekend as next week we have a very busy time here in
‘Doggy World Heaven’ & ‘Bird Sanctuary Paradise’ as well as airport runs
and surgery/hospital visits; Andy is joining us for supper on Tuesday as he
drops ‘Charlie’ the African Grey Parrot off so I’m going to make my version of
the classic “ Cottage Pie ” for a nice pre-winter warmer!
No films to
mention as last night there was nothing much on.
