A 'FRESH' WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON WEDNESDAY.


WEDNESDAY 12th/ FEBRUARY 2020.






































I was up early, again, this morning to welcome back little ‘ Miss Bella’ for the last time this week, we then all had a nice, long, lie in before we got another day on the go, after freshening up, the gas-bottle delivery man called, to exchange our gas bottle that I had put out earlier, as I was on the breakfast rota I had a ‘ Toasted Crispy Smoked Bacon Butty ‘ – smothered in ‘HP’ Brown sauce – open on brown for Brenda, with mugs of hot/strong tea.


Tomorrow morning we are shooting across to Estepona, as I’m calling into my Barber, Manuel, for the ‘ full-works’ – while Brenda pops along to the ‘Primark’ shop for her cosmetics,  as well as stopping at ‘ La Casa’ for some night lights, we are then coming back along the coast road, past Sotogrande, to ‘Pueblo de Guadiaro’ - as we are going to ‘Iceland’ for some of our ‘English’ essentials, top of the list are ‘ Mushy Peas ‘! 









So tomorrows ‘Blog’ will be published a little later than normal.







At lunchtime on our walk with little ' Miss Bella' we checked out the new awnings above the new outside terrace in front of ' Cafe Plaza' in Calle Mar, see below. 




















We have yet another beautiful day here in sunny Manilva, the sky is already clear & blue, there is a light ‘ Fresh’ breeze, so by lunchtime it’s due to reach 19/20 degs+ again, overnight still hovering on the 11/12 degs+ mark, the rest of the week and over the coming weekend it’s staying the same, even going a little warmer, up in the high ‘ teens’ – next week is now settling down a little, starting hot on Monday & Tuesday, then going a little cooler, as the next windy ‘ Atlantic’ front comes in, with now just the chance of some of the ‘ Wet-Stuff’ – but mainly warm and sunny, with a few patchy clouds at times, as the breeze picks up, watch this space.













See below some pictures of the ‘ make-over’ refurbishment of the Bar area of the ‘Manilva Green Aparthotel’ – now looking a lot lighter and modern, they have also dropped the stone balcony and installed a new glass front, so the views over the valley and across to the mountains and down to the Mediterranean are greatly improved, as you can see! Our friend Andy works in the Reception, Bar & Restaurant as well as the being the ‘ Night Manager’!
























For our supper this evening we are having ‘ Grilled Gammon Steaks’ – topped with seared Pineapple Rings and topped with ‘ Campo’ Fried Eggs, served with Garden Peas and triple-cooked ‘ Chips’














In ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ tomorrow evening ‘Scruffy’ is with us for a sleep-over and will be picked up later on Friday evening, as Adrian is at the ‘Costa Del Sol Hospital’ On Saturday ‘ Chico’ is due to arrive for his extended 3/ 4 weeks holiday, then next week little ‘ Miss Bella’ will be back on Monday/Tuesday as usual.
















We are taking things easy today, as we are out & about tomorrow on the ‘ Costa Del Sol’ – later relaxing and basically doing nothing, because we can, after supper we will be channel hopping, as the ‘IPTV’ system is up and running again, to find something to watch.























Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
