FRIDAY 22nd / APRIL 2016.
I was up early this morning and after
seeing ‘ Reina’ back with us for the day I shot off on my travels, I called
into our bank in Sabinillas first, then the English Bookshop for the local
newspapers, I then did our main shop in ‘ Mercadona’ before going along the
promenade to buy some fresh flowers & more wall plants from the local
market, on the way back I called into ‘ Super Sol’ for some English essentials.
We have another glorious day down here on
the ‘ Costa Del Sol’- the sky is blue, the sun was out early and there is no
breeze, the ‘ Mediterranean’ was sparkling as I drove down through the vine
fields, the forecast for the weekend and into the start of next week is for
more of the same, sunny Manilva at its best!
As I was out on my travels I called into ‘
Castillo de la Duquesa’ to see Andrew in the studio of ‘ Castle Radio FM 89.2
& World Wide Online ’ to pass on my playlist for tomorrow’s programme when “
Sir Malcolm’s Saturday Session “ goes live for the first time at 11-00am – 1-00pm!!
Last night I ordered an ‘ On Air ‘ light sign to go above the door to my studio
when I’m broadcasting ‘ live’ from the heart of sunny Manilva!!
We have just had a surprise Skype video call
from Jack & Lyn over in Melbourne, after we spoke to them the other day, they
have booked to come and see us at the same time as Norah & Jenny are
coming, they arrive in England on the 26th May and will then arrange
their plans to fit in with the girls, they will hopefully all fly over together
towards the end of June ( Brenda’s birthday is on the 22nd ?!) - they have asked us to arrange the large
duplex apartment, that they had last time, at the ‘ Manilva Green Aparthotel’
Its made our day and we can’t wait to welcome them all back to sunny Manilva,
watch this space.
“ NEWSFLASH
– CAR UPDATE “
The
little ‘ Red Ferrari – Fiesta ‘ is being sold and we have a new ( second
hand! ) ‘ Silver Mercedes Limousine – a Daewo ‘ Tacuma’ ( South Korea!) – with right hand drive, its a
five seater, five door, hatchback with all the trimmings!! Our friend, Rose (
Scruffy’s Mum! ) is selling it as they don’t need two cars now as they have
both retired. See the picture below, we are collecting it on Sunday.
For our supper this evening we are having ‘
Goujon’s of Hake Fillet in Cruzcampo Batter ‘ with Mushy Peas and ‘Frits’ – on Saturday
night I have two very nice Fillet Steaks and then on Sunday evening I’m making
my famous ‘ Smoked Chicken & Three Bean Risotto ‘ At lunchtime today we are
going up to Calle Mar for a light ‘Tapas’ lunch at Bar Rojas. Last night our
friend Andy joined us for a drink and then we had supper with him.
Later we all watched the next exciting
& gripping episode of ‘ Line of Duty’ on BBC 2 – it was very dramatic as
the story unfolded, the vice ring at the children’s home is starting to come
back to haunt the ring of Councillor’s & Policemen that took part, the
cover up, with a ‘Masonic’ background is starting to crumble, the main
character who is being framed by his superior colleague in the ‘Anti Corruption
’ squad has been suspended, but with the help of another police officer, that
was framed and sent to prison but is now out after being cleared, is getting to
the truth, with her help, at the end there was a very brutal shooting, at close
range, in a car, with lots of blood!! Watch this space!!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
