We had a little lie in this morning and
then after our regular breakfast we sorted ourselves out and got ready to go
over to the Bus Station in Marbella to pick up our friend Gillian after she
flew into Malaga from Bristol. She was on time and walked out from the bus station
just as we arrived, we had an horrendous drive over as we went through a cloud
burst just past Estepona, the coast road is very dangerous at the best of
times, the best place to be was in the outside lane as the road was flooding on
the sides, it was the same on the way back.
Overnight the rains returned and this
morning it started cloudy & overcast, the rain then hit us and it has not
stopped since, it’s looking like it will pick up a little from Monday, we will
find out tomorrow afternoon on the main weather forecast on ‘TVE’ what the week
has in store for us, watch this space.
We are staying in this evening, it’s
definitely a stay at home night, for our supper we are having ‘ Pan-Grilled
Medallions of Pork Fillet’ with a ‘ Charcutiere Sauce, a sharp, piquant/rich
salsa made with sliced Onions & Gherkins, Mustards & Vinegar, with from
the ‘Vegetable Chef’ - crushed Carrots, Broccoli Florets, whole Green Beans and
‘ Breton’ style Potatoes ( cooked diced potatoes sautéed with dice Onions, Red,
Green & Yellow Peppers)
Tomorrow evening Gillian is taking us out
for dinner, hopefully to ‘ Restaurante La Choza’ down in Sabinillas, to
celebrate our ‘45th Wedding Anniversary’ – which is on Tuesday!
‘ Reina’ is back with us on Monday morning
for her usual five days, first thing on Tuesday morning I’m taking Brenda down
to the surgery for her ‘ECG’- fingers crossed, that its working, later in the
morning we are then going across to Estepona to drop Gillian off at her friends
where she is staying for the rest of the week, I’m going to call into my
Barbers for my ‘pre-Xmas’ full works, no doubt Brenda will do a little window shopping?!
The on Tuesday evening we have our appointments with the ‘Chiropodist’ down at
the surgery.
Just a quick update on the sports results;
Liverpool won 2-0, Manchester City won 1-2 & Real Madrid won 2-0, Nico
Rosberg came second to Lewis Hamilton in the ‘ Abu Dhabi Grand Prix’ which
means that he is the new ‘World Champion’
