A VERY 'CLOSE' AND SUNNY MANILVA ON TUESDAY.


TUESDAY 23rd/ JULY 2019.



































Brenda was up early this morning to welcome back little ‘Miss Bella’ for the day, with us in ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ – this afternoon ‘ Scruffy’ is being dropped off for a few hours, we then freshened up and had a quick toast & tea, as Brenda was going off to catch the bus down to Sabinillas, as she had her appointment at her Hairdressers, with Annie, for the ‘ Full-Works’ – she will catch the bus back up later!


The sun was out, as usual, early this morning and the sky was clearing, by lunchtime it’s forecast to reach 28 degs+ - but still with the threat of ‘Rain’ on all the forecasts?! Over the next couple of days it’s going a little hotter, then on Friday it’s up to 33 degs+ just in time for the main start of the ‘ Feria Santa Ana’! Over the weekend it’s staying the same, next week is going to be another ‘ Hot-One’ Watch this space.










Over at the “ Tour de France “ after their ‘rest-day’ – it’s ‘Stage 16 ‘ taking place around Nimes over 177 kms, starting and finishing in the centre of the spectacular city, a easy ‘flattish’ stage before three days in and over the Alps!


See the route map below;






















For supper this evening it’s a ‘ Steak Sandwich’ – made with slices of ‘ Beef Entrecote’ – seasoned and smeared with Dijon Mustard before  ‘flash-cooking’ them on a very hot griddle-plate, then placed on the toasted bread and cut into triangles, a little salad garnish on the side and just few twice-cooked ‘ Frits’ on the side, cooked to order!











Tomorrow I’m making a large bowl of my now famous “ Ensalada Rusa – Russian Salad “ with the help of the ‘ Second Chef’ who prepares all the ingredients, which we will have over the next couple of days with sliced Smoked Ham and more Mixed Salads!














This evening after supper we will be back channel hopping to find a good film to watch.























Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
