THURSDAY 6th / OCTOBER 2016.
I was up first this morning to welcome back
‘ Reina’ for the day, she shot into her duvet before breakfast, she’s on ‘
Carrot’ diet! Thankfully I’m not so I had ‘Campo’ Fried Eggs with Crispy Smoked
Bacon! ‘ Chispa’ is also back to her normal routine of calling in 2/3 times a
day to see us and her friends, we then got the shopping list ready for tomorrow
morning, I’ve got two appointments first thing, one at our surgery for a check
up and the other one down at the main surgery in Sabinillas for my blood tests,
I will then carry on my regular route for the main shop.
It’s a lovely day, the sun was out early
and the sky is already bright blue, there is no breeze, the overall
temperatures have dropped a little, 23/24 degs, over the next couple of days
and the weekend they are due to drop a bit more, back to normal for the time of
the year.
See below the sunrise this morning, back to
normal for October!
For the is evenings supper we are having ‘
Grilled Chicken Wings’ with a Mixed Salad & Baked Potato, tomorrow I will
pick up the fresh fish from the market in the morning, Saturday night it’s
going to be ‘ Grilled Entrecote Steak’ and then on Sunday I’m making my famous ‘
Smoked Chicken & three Green Bean Risotto’
Yesterday afternoon Mano & Anna called
in for a good chat and gossip, Mano is on holiday for all of October, so we
will see more of them, meanwhile there has been a confirmed sighting of the ‘
Moffatt’s’ in Northern Spain, they are in ‘ Haro’ a town in the ‘ Rioja Region’
famous for its Red Wine! They are on their way to Madrid to meet up with Jo,
see the picture below of Tim outside their motor home relaxing with a glass of
Beer & Gin& Tonic for Thea, no Rioja?!
One bit of bad news this morning, we are in
the middle of our various Pensions arriving in our ‘Spanish Bank Account’ – the
‘ Euro’ has dropped to its lowest level in the last five years, the forecast is
that it’s will go down more over the next few months and could even reach ‘
Parity’ with the Pound! Watch this space!!
After supper last night we settled down to
watch ‘ The Great British Bake Off’ on BBC 1 before going over to ITV 1 to
catch the next exciting & gripping episode of the two-part ‘ DCI Banks’ as
he eventually found the murderer and caught the nasty serial criminal, it had a
very moving moment at the end. This
evening it’s the next episode of ‘ Paranoid’ which is building up to another
very exciting climax!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
