MONDAY 26/th OCTOBER 2015.
We were up early this morning as I had a appointment
with our Doctor at the surgery for the results of the X-Ray,the good news is
that I’m all clear, the bad news is that we are loosing our Doctor again, she
is very nice and speaks some English,so hopefully we will have some continuity
with the next one and not be shopped around with relief doctors?!
Meanwhile Brenda walked both the dogs, one
at a time, so when I got back from the surgery we had our usual breakfast and
sorted out the week ahead; ‘Reina’ is with us as usual on Tuesday &
Thursday and possible Saturday,’Chispa’ has been in and out all weekend and no
doubt will be calling in all this week.
‘Barny & Maisie’ have been collected
this morning and are coming back with us for ten days from the 20th
December,over Xmas, ‘Charlie’ is also here for two weeks over the Xmas &
New Year; finally ‘Reina’ is with us for six days over the New Year!! ‘Doggy
World Heaven’ is open for business at any time – somebody said the other day
that we are like ‘Foster Parents’ which sound just about right!!
No other appointments this week so we will
be going down to Sabinillas on Friday morning for our weekly shopping; on the
menu front we are having flattened ‘Chicken Fillets’ that Brenda takes off the
breast’s. I will dry grill them and then sprinkle a dash of Balsalmic Vineager
on them, we are having some Baby New Potatoes in their skins & Green Beans;
tomorrow night its ‘Entrecote Minute Steak’ with Frits and then on Wednesday I’m
making a large pan of my special and famous “ Scouse”!!
At the moment its wet and overcast with the
threat of more rain to come later today and tomorrow, then on Wednesday it
starting to get back to normal for the time of year, clear and sunny!
Yesterday we went out to Bar Castillo for
our ‘Paella’ lunch,which I had, we had two large Gambas to start, Brenda had a small 'Pincho de Gambas - a skewer of baby Prawns - then our favourite ‘Spanish’ style mini deep fried Prawn parcels made with Filo
Pastry!
When we got back we then watched the second
semi final of the ‘Rugby Union World Cup’ from Twickenham as the Australians
just beat Argentina! Next it was the ‘Grand Prix’ from Austin in Texas; for
a change it was very exciting with lots of overtaking on the wide multi cornered
circuit, with pit stops for tyre changes and the leadership changing, in the
end Lewis Hamilton over took his team mate Nico Rosberg with ten laps to go and won
his third World Championship with three races to go!The German driver was not a good looser and acted
like a naughty child!! In the football
Liverpool could only manage at 1-1 draw at home and the ‘Derby’ game in
Manchester ended goal less, over here Barcelona won 3-1.
So this week we will be able to get back to
our reading and settle down for our ‘Happy Hour’ Yesterday lunchtime before we
went out we were listening to ‘Castle Radio FM 89.2’ – it’s been off line for few
days with more computer problems so the owner/presenter, Andrew Charles, launched a new two hour lunchtime session
programme.
The idea if for guest/ permanent presenters to take it over, so I
E-Mailed in a request and at the same time put my self forward,he played our
request and gave me a long introduction – fingers crossed and watch this
space!!Later I’m starting to put together my Radio playlist for the show!!
Finally we watched “ Downton Abbey” on ITV
before coming back to Spanish TV and caught a good film late on.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
