We had a nice, long, lie in this morning,
the last one for a while as we are going to be very busy in ‘ Doggy World
Heaven’ over the next few weeks.
After freshening up Brenda suggested for my
breakfast a little ‘treat’ of a ‘Toasted Campo Fried Egg (2) Butty’! – two ‘
Campo’ Fried Eggs cooked in Virgin Olive Oil, then seasoned with Salt &
White Pepper, between toasted, buttered slices on ‘Farmhouse’ White Bread, with mugs of hot/strong ‘PG’ Tips
Tea, it was a special ‘bribe’ as we were then putting up the ‘Xmas Tree’ - lights
and decorations!
This morning the breeze has dropped and the
sun broke through earlier, the sky is clear & blue, so by lunchtime it’s
due to reach 18 degs+ - staying sunny and warm, sadly next week, from tomorrow,
when the next very cold, wet & windy ‘ Atlantic’ front hits us, we are in
for a long week of the ‘ Wet-Stuff’ – getting windier as the week goes on, by
Friday up to ‘Gale-Force’ – with moderate to heavy rain each day, hovering in
the low/mid ‘ teens’ – 11/14 degs only, overnight down to 8/9 degs!
The following ‘Xmas Week’ is now forecast
to be dry & settled to start but still with the threat of ‘ RAIN’ over ‘Christmas
Day & Boxing Day’!! Watch this
space.
While I have been typing/posting today’s
Blog, as usual, I have been listening to the ‘ Pete Black Retro Roadshow – Xmas
Songs ‘ on “ Castle Radio FM 89.2 & Online on the WWW” - as the ‘ Film Quiz’ came on, it was “ Meet
Me in St Louis “ with Judy Garland, from 1944! So we are in the monthly draw,
again! Watch this space.
For our supper this evening we are having
for a change ‘ Grilled Medallions of
Pork Fillet’ accompanied with a sauceboat of a ‘Creamy Green Peppercorn’ sauce,
served with Glazed Baby Carrot Batons and Whole Baby ‘ French’ Green Beans, with
‘ Breton’ style Potatoes – diced, boiled Potatoes tossed in foaming Parsley Butter
with diced Red, Yellow & Green Peppers with chopped Onion & Shallots.
We are taking things easy, later, all the ‘Xmas’
decorations etc have been put up, yesterday on two of the outside ‘ Juliet’
balconies Brenda put out the ‘ Santa Claus’s’ climbing into our house!
PS; See below three more ‘Xmas’ presents
requests for ‘ Santa Claus ‘ this year, either a Aston ( Silver) Martin, a McLaren (
Blue) or a Porsche ( Red ) “ THANKS “ !!!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
