A GLORIOUS ' FRESH' & SUNNY MANILVA ON THURSDAY.


THURSDAY 7th/ MARCH 2019.


































I was up early this morning and after a very quick freshen up I shot off across to the ‘ Physiotherapy Department ‘ at the ‘ Estepona Hospital for my penultimate session on my problem left-hand, I’m back tomorrow morning and then on Monday lunchtime I have an appointment with the ‘ Consultant’ for a review/check up, watch this space.

I found a spot to park straight away so I had a quick tea & tostado before going across to the Hospital, when I returned to the house  ‘Brenda ‘ had a nice surprise for me, a small ‘Toasted  English Pork Sausage Butty ‘ – smothered in ‘ HP’ Brown sauce, with a mug of tea, which I didn’t say no too!!

Every morning I pass the new ‘ Athletics & Sports Stadium ‘ next to the ‘Football Ground’ which is nearly ready to open, see below the latest ‘ Drone’ pictures!
















The sun was out first thing this morning and was blinding above a sparkling Mediterranean as I shot along the coast road, overnight a stiff breeze has cleared away the black clouds and it’s now cloudless with a bright blue sky, there is just a very slight breeze so by lunchtime it will be back up to 17 degs+ - steadily getting warmer over the coming weekend, hovering in the high ‘ teens’ . by the start of next week, on Monday it’s forecast to reach 23 degs+ - the rest of the week is staying the same, with warm sunshine all the time, just in time for the annual ‘ Carnival  Weekend’ Watch this space.



See below an atmospheric picture of the ‘Duquesa Marina’ last night!














In ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ on Saturday morning, this week, ‘ Chico’ is back with us for a long week, then the following Friday little ‘ Scoobie’ is also back with us for a two-night sleep-over, on the ‘ Carnival Weekend’! ‘ Chispa’ is of course in and out all the time to see us, watching out for the return of all her friends also!













This evening for our supper we are having “ Pie & Chips’ – the rest of the ‘ Chicken & Mushroom Tarragon Pie’ with twice-cooked ‘ Chips’ and Garden Peas. On Friday it’s going to be ‘Pan-Seared Fillets of Salmon’ for Brenda and ‘ Pan-Seared Fillets of Hake’ for me, Saturday is going to be our ‘ Steak Night’ and then on Sunday, for a change, we are having ‘ Medallions of Pork Fillet’












Yesterday evening we caught up with Tim & Thea up in Mojacar and had a good catch up with all their news, via a ‘Facebook’ Messenger video link-up, they are returning to North Wales next week, via Madrid, to see their Daughter Jo, have a ‘ Safe Journey’














We are making contact with Jack & Lyn over in Melbourne on the ‘ Skype’ video in the next couple of the days, before our pre-arranged call to Sandra & Bill, over in Everett, Ontario, Canada, on Sunday evening. Watch this space.










Last night after supper we settled down to watch the first episode of the new BBC Political Drama/ Psycho Thriller - “ MotherFatherSon” with Helen McCrory, Richard Gere(!) & Billy Howle in the title roles! – its going to explore sex, power and politics as the plotline unfolds, ‘Gere’ is the American owner of a British media empire, his son, a cocaine and sex addict, is the editor ( Nepotism)  of the ‘Newspaper/TV empire’ – the ‘Mother’ is an English ‘Lady’ who has been frozen out of the family and is starting a relationship with a homeless man at the shelter where she does volunteer work! A ‘ mega-cast’ including Sinead Cusack and Sarah Lancashire, as a future Prime Minister! It’s going to get rather interesting over the next seven episodes, watch this space.






















Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
