THURSDAY 9th/ JANUARY 2020.
I was up first this morning to see little ‘
Miss Bella’ back with us for the day, as usual, she shot upstairs on to our bed
and joined Brenda for a little lie in, after freshening up we had our regular
light breakfast of toast & tea, we then put together the shopping list for
tomorrow morning, as I will be out on my travels, down to Sabinillas, on the
local bus, as there is still no sign of the car coming back from the garage!
PS; Leah has now very kindly offered to take me down for our shopping on Friday morning, after she has dropped Deemy off at his school in Sotogrande, 'Thanks' !

We then took ‘ Miss Bella’ out for a short
walk to check that the local bus is still coming to the ‘Wine Centre’ stop, the
work on the main entrance road into the village has not started yet!
This evening ‘ Scruffy’ is back with us for
a sleep-over, until later tomorrow afternoon/evening, as Adrian is in the ‘
Costa Del Sol Hospital’ for a six-hour ‘
heart-drip’ treatment.
This morning has started grey &
overcast with a cooling breeze, the forecast is for it to clear by lunchtime,
when it will be sunny, with a few patchy clouds hanging around, only reaching16
degs+ - now very hot & sunny, tomorrow is looking the same, then over the weekend as the breeze stiffens
a little, it’s going cooler, down to 14/15 degs, with a small chance of the ‘Wet-Stuff’
back in the air, when we are out on Sunday, with our dear friend ‘ Joyce baby’
for ‘ Sunday Lunch’ – we have booked a table at ‘ La Taberna 2 ‘ down in ‘Castillo
de la Duquesa’
Next week has now settled down, it’s going
to be dry & sunny, with a few patchy clouds, all week, the breeze will have
dropped and the temperatures will be hovering in the mid/high ‘ teens’ – 17/18
degs+ - overnight down to 10 degs, about normal for the time of the year, watch
this space.
Over in Liverpool, on the River Mersey this
morning the “ MS Norbank “ a ‘ Ro-Ro’ freight vessel, on the Liverpool to
Dublin route, was spotted passing ‘ Crosby beach, on her way into the ‘Port of
Liverpool’ with one of the ‘” Sir Antony Gormley “ - ‘Another Place ‘ cast-iron
figures/statues ( 100 ) watching her pass by!
On our lunchtime walk with little ' Miss Bella' we ended up back at ' Bar Castillo' - sat outside in the hot sunshine, for a nice cool drink, taking in the sights & sounds of sunny Manilva, as the 'World' passed us by!
Meanwhile over in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, it's ' Alanna's birthday today; " Happy Birthday - Feliz Cumpleaños "
See below a new picture of the ' Birthday Girl' !
For our supper this evening we are having
the rest of the “ Pork & Mushroom ‘Tarragon’ Casserole “ with the
left-over Vegetables & Potatoes with some Garden Peas and for a
change ‘ Crunchy’ Hash Browns!
On Friday it’s going to be a ‘ Fish n ‘Chip’
supper and on Saturday our usual ‘ Steak Night’
Last night we caught, after supper, the 2nd
part of the new series of ‘Silent Witness’ as all was revealed! Watch it to
find out!! This evening it’s the start of a new series of ‘ Death in Paradise’ –
then on Sunday it’s the start of the new season of the excellent “ Vera’ with ‘
Brenda Blethyn’ in the title role, as the obsessive ‘ Northumberland’ Detective
Chief Inspector who ‘ plods’ around, in a dishevelled state, to find the
murderers! One not to miss!!
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
