WEDNESDAY 24th / AUGUST 2016.
I was up early this morning as ‘ Reina’ was
due back with us for the day, we then freshened ourselves up, Brenda had her
first shower in a few days, the handrail on the bath/shower wall makes all the
difference, it was then time for our regular breakfast, ‘ Chispa’ came calling
for the first time today, we hear her coming up the street , we have christened
her ‘Tinkerbell’! I then shot along to the Chemists in ‘Calle Mar’ for Brenda’s
new support stockings and some more of my tablets.
It’s still very warm & sultry but not as
hot as the rest of Spain as we have a ‘ Levante Sea Breeze’ coming along the
coast from the Mediterranean making it a little cooler, overnight it’s still
hovering on the 30degs mark and the days are reaching a little higher, the
weekend is also looking good with more of the same, next week is going to be
another hot one before the ‘ Vendimia Festival’ on the first weekend in
September, watch this space.
This morning I brought in the washing off
the lines up on the roof patio and put more out, it’s very good drying weather,
we are trying to catch up with the chores around the house after Brenda’s
latest set back, on the menu front we are still keeping it very simple, no
plans and just snacking when we feel like it! Brenda is still sleeping
downstairs on the sofa and during the day keeping her feet up as much as
possible, she’s using just one crutch for now, she’s has no bandages on her
foot and will try later to put on the new toeless/knee high support stockings
which do make a big difference and help with the blood circulation at the same
time. Watch this space. RESULT – they are on and with not too much difficulty!!
Over the last couple of evenings we have
started to follow two new series on BBC 1 & 2 as well as some new Quiz
shows; ‘Ripper Street’ is a thriller set in the Victorian era, we need to see
the previous two seasons as the story line follow on, then last night it was a
new drama miniseries set in a isolated rural community in Scotland ‘ One Of Us ‘
– ‘it’s very gripping with a excellent
surprise start, the cast of Juliet Stevenson John Lynch, Julie Graham &
Adrian Edmondson all add to the programme quality.
‘ Happy Hour ‘ cocktails are still on the
agenda!!
PS; What's happened to the ' Moffatt's over in Old Colwyn ?!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
