A BREEZY, WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON MONDAY AT THE START OF THE WEEK;

MONDAY 31st/ OCTOBER 2016.




















No lie in this morning, ‘Reina’ arrived first thing, she’s with us for her normal five days this week, she’s still on her ‘ Carrot’ only diet as she has put a little weight on, ‘Pax’ slept well and we then took him out for his first walk of the day, ‘ Chispa’ has called in over the weekend as usual.

After breakfast of our favourite ‘ Smoked Bacon Butties’ with mugs of steaming tea we sorted our week ahead out; tomorrow it’s a ‘National Bank Holiday’ here in Spain “ All Saints Day “ when all the relatives visit the cemetery in remembrance of the dead. We have no appointments this week, next week is when we are at the hospital over in Marbella, on Friday morning I will catch up with the weekly shopping, otherwise we have a quiet week here in sunny Manilva.

This morning the ‘ Lavante’ breeze has got up a little making it breezy but the sun is still out and the sky is clear, the week is looking settled but we will find out later on the main afternoon news on ‘ TVE’ what the forecast has in store for us, watch this space.

Over the weekend the ‘ Moffatt’s’ Tim & Thea have been spotted in Javea ( Xabia ) – the most western spot of Spain, sticking out into the Mediterranean, in the area around Alicante/Valencia, they are visiting friends and are staying on a site above the coast, see the picture below.







See the picture below of the ‘ Wynne Gardens ‘ entrance in Old Colwyn, which is at the top of their street ‘ Wynne Avenue ‘! Just a reminder of where home is!!










This evening for our supper we are having ‘ Escalope’s of Pork Fillet Schnitzels’ with ‘Spaghetti Milanese’ – I'm making another batch of my ‘ Tomato Salsa ' later this morning, this week’s menu’s have yet to be agreed, watch this space.


See the picture below of the ‘ Sexton’s Halloween Supper ‘ !!







Last night after supper we watched the next to last episode ( 9) of this year series of ‘ Poldark’ – a business windfall means that he can reopen the mine, his ex-love, that he seduced last week, has now gone and married , for money, not love, his evil arch enemy after he didn’t make contact with her, his wife, Demelza, is broken hearted and goes off to a house party and gets drunk, three men then try to seduce her, ‘ Malcolm’ the army Captain, who she closed the door on, then two other chaps have a go to try her honour, the local squire and a creep, both their candles were put out when she jumped out of the window and escaped”!

Back in the mine Ross discoverd a major seam of copper, making him a rich & wealthy man again, will Demelza now have him back, will his ex-love seek revenge by moving back into the ‘ Poldark family mansion with her new husband?! Will the local Doctor join the Navy, will Ross also go back to being a Captain?! All will be revealed in next week’s final episode, watch this space.
