WEDNESDAY 20th / JULY 2016.
I was up first this morning and saw ‘ Reina
‘ back for the day, she’s being picked up later this evening as Daniela is
collecting Lee up from the Airport in Gibraltar after she finishes work, we all
then had a little lie in until the gas bottle delivery man came down our street
blowing his horn! After breakfast Brenda went along to the Chemists in ‘ Calle
Mar ‘ for her tablets, I’m due for mine in the next couple of days.
This morning its a little over cast, cloudy
and very close, there is the sound of thunder in the air and at one time it was
spotting, the street is covered in sand as its the ‘ Sahara Rain’ that at this
time of the year blows across from Africa, its the tail end of the storms that
are hitting the UK at the moment after their ‘one day’ of summer! By lunchtime
it will be back to normal for the time of the year, see the forecast below, the
picture shows the cloud formations over Puerto de al Duquesa first thing this
morning.
For our supper this evening we are having
the rest of the ‘ Chicken, Mushroom & Tarragon Casserole’ – tomorrow its
the ‘ Chef & Staff’s’ night off so we are having a Tapas supper along at ‘Bar
Castillo’ before going down to the Cultural Centre ‘ Casa del Torres’ for the
Tango Concert, on Friday its going to be my famous ‘ Seafood Risotto ‘ and
Saturday will be ‘ Steak Night’
Today’s Stage 17 of the “ Tour De France “
goes into the Alps for the next four days, today is starts in Berne & ends
in Finhaut-Emosson after 184 kms of climbs, Chris Froome will be looking to
retain the race leaders Yellow Jersey, Mark Cavendish has left the Tour to
focus on the Olympic Games where he is completing in the track racing for the
first time in 8 years as he looks to add a Gold Medal ( his first!) to his
collection, in the ‘Omnium’ Race. See the route map below. Watch this space.
We are taking things easy today with
nothing planned, its an at home day catching up with the chores, later we will
watch the ‘ Tour ‘ and then the ‘ Quiz ‘ shows before supper, later I will
channel hop and find a film to watch, not forgetting our Happy Hour cocktails!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
