FRIDAY 19th/ JULY 2019.
We were both up very early this morning and
after a quick freshen up we shot off on our travels down to Sabinillas for the
weekly shopping, we first had toast & tea in ‘ItsZabar’ before ‘Mercadona
opened, at this time of the year it’s very busy, with ten times the customers, the
traffic and parking is the same, it’s ‘ Mad’ on all the roads, very dangerous with
lots of crashes!
We then called into the ‘ English Bookshop’
for the local newspapers and post a birthday
card, surprisingly the cards are arriving very quick at the moment! We then
shot along to the far end of the promenade to the local market for some fresh
flowers and wall plants, before stopping at ‘ Super Sol’ on the way back up the
hill, for our ‘ English ‘ essentials,
then unloading back at the house.
This afternoon ‘ Scruffy’ is back with us
in ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ for the last time this week, he will be back for the
five afternoons next week, as Adrian continues his radiotherapy treatment over
in Malaga, on Monday/Tuesday morning little ‘ Miss Bella’ is with us again, ‘Chispa’
will be crashing in all the time to see all her friends.
As we set off it was a little cool &
fresh, but the sun soon came out and by the time we got home it was very hot
& sunny, with just a few patchy clouds hanging around, the breeze is very
slight and only cooling in the shade, by lunchtime it will be 28 degs+ -
tomorrow and Sunday the same, next week is now looking very hot & sunny, by
Wednesday up to 30 degs+ then going hotter, by next weekend, watch this space.
Over in Liverpool today it’s the 108th anniversary of the “ Royal Liver Building “
Today at the “ Tour de France “ it’s the
individual ‘Time Trial’ around Pau, over 28 kms, see the hilly route map below;
At lunchtime we popped along to ' Bar Castillo' on the shady side of 'Calle Mar' and sat outside for a nice cool drink and a couple of light 'Tapas'
For our supper this evening we are having ‘Goujon’s
of Hake Fillet’ –coated in local breadcrumbs from the Bakery, shallow-fried in
Vegetable Oil, until crisp & golden all over, accompanied with homemade ‘Tartar’
sauce, with Mushy Green Peas and triple-cooked ‘Chips’
After supper we will settle down to watch
the TV after channel hopping to find something to watch.
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
