MONDAY 3rd/ AUGUST 2015.
No lie in this morning as 'Reina' was due to be dropped off first thing,she's with us from today and then Tuesday/Thursday; Rose asked us as she was collecting 'Scruffy' yesterday if we could look after two dogs this week for a sleep over on Tuesday & Wednesday for two friends of hers - they are calling later this morning to see us with the dogs!?
Well Valerie & Caroline, who are sisters, arrived just after lunch with 'Freddie & Bentley" who are two small Black dogs who are very friendly and after meeting the folks and the dogs they are coming to stay with us in 'Doggy World Heaven' from tomorrow morning until Thursday morning! They have also booked them in for an important date at the start of September also - no doubt we will see more of them before then!!
Its very warm & sunny this morning and the week ahead looks like it could get hotter, we will check the forecasts this evening at the end of the main news.
After breakfast we had our usual morning meeting,we have no plans for this week, so far, but Brenda is due to make an appointment to have her hair cut ASAP - next week its my turn to go over to Estepona to my Barbers and at the same time I'm making an appointment to see the Computer Shop owner to start the process of finding/buying my new system - watch this space.
Last night we were at the official opening of the " Casa Los Torres" Cultural Centre by the new Mayor,Diego, after cutting the tape the new Art Exhibition in the main gallery was on view and in the central courtyard there was a champion 'Carver' slicing the finest 'Pata Negra' Ham - 'Jamon Iberico' ( see the Black Hoof) - Sherry from the cask being poured in the correct way and the entertainment was a very fine 'Flemenco' singer & guitarist. See the pictures below & above taken by me and my fellow 'Art' photographer - 'Den' in his Black & White Mode!
Or my version!
We then retired up to 'Bar Castillo' for a late Tapas supper with Den & Josie after taking in the sights and sounds of the evening - our cultural 'appetite's' satisfied!
We have just been onto our Bank over in North Wales to arrange our normal monthly transfers to our Spanish Bank AC - this month as well as our regular ones we have due some yearly ones at the same time, so fingers crossed that the rate of exchange for the Euro stays up despite the Greeks! The first two have arrived in our account and the rate was very good - a good start to the month!!
For our supper this evening we are having flattened Chicken Breast cooked on the griddle plate - dry with dry sauteed thick cut slices of Baked Potato & fresh local Green Beans.Our 'Happy Hour' will take place somewhere later this afternoon after the site workmen have finished.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
